We take a little boy around town (5)
I believe the answer is:
lewes
'town' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'we take a little boy' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'we' is present in the answer.
'little' could be 'l' (abbreviation) and 'l' is located in the answer.
The remaining letters 'es' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'around' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for lewes that I've seen before include "somewhere in Sussex" , "E. Sussex battle" , "Administrative town of East Sussex" , "Town near Glyndebourne" , "East fourteen Dn town" .)
