Unusually tactile network (7)
I believe the answer is:
lattice
'network' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'unusually tactile' is the wordplay.
'unusually' indicates anagramming the letters.
'tactile' is an anagram of 'LATTICE'.
(Other definitions for lattice that I've seen before include "Criss-cross pattern" , "Network of crossed bars" , "Window with criss-cross strips of lead" , "type of tracery" , "Crystalline structure" .)
