Ways in which the rest, perhaps, set out to (7)
I believe the answer is:
streets
'ways in which' is the definition.
'streets' can be an answer for 'ways' (street is a kind of way). I am not certain of the rest of the definition.
'rest perhaps set out to' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
an anagram of 'rest' is 'stre' which is present in the answer.
an anagram of 'set' is 'ets' which is within the answer.
No letters remain.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'the' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for streets that I've seen before include "Ways" , "Built-up roads" , "City thoroughfares" , "significantly ahead?" , "Town thoroughfares" .)
