'where to' is the definition.
The answer is a location as well as being a singular noun. This is suggested by the definition.

'some irish heiresses' is the wordplay.
'some' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue (some parts of the word are used).
'EIRE' can be found hidden inside 'irish heiresses'.

'find' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
