Wife and husband far away from pier (5)
I believe the answer is:
wharf
'pier' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'wife and husband far away' is the wordplay.
'wife' becomes 'w'.
'and' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'husband' becomes 'h'.
'away' indicates an anagram.
'far' is an anagram of 'arf'.
'w'+'h'+'arf'='WHARF'
'from' is the link.
(Other definitions for wharf that I've seen before include "Landing stage or quayside" , "Pier" , "Landing stage for unloading" , "Quayside area" , "Waterfront landing stage" .)
