Troublesome women put down in town (10)
I believe the answer is:
shrewsbury
'town' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'troublesome women put down' is the wordplay.
'troublesome women' becomes 'shrews'.
'put down' becomes 'bury' (burying is a kind of putting down).
'shrews'+'bury'='SHREWSBURY'
'in' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for shrewsbury that I've seen before include "Birthplace of Charles Darwin" , "Market town" , "Place" , "Shropshire county town" .)
