Where a taxi turns up in Lancashire (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bacup

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'lancashire' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.

'where a taxi turns up' is the wordplay.
'where' becomes 'pu' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'a taxi' becomes 'cab' (synonyms).
'turns up' says the letters should be written in reverse.
'pu'+'cab'='pucab'
'pucab' written backwards gives 'BACUP'.

'in' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for bacup that I've seen is " Lancashire town".)
