French town rebuilt by Danes (5)
I believe the answer is:
sedan
'french town' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't see how they can define each other.
'rebuilt by danes' is the wordplay.
'danes' can be anagrammed to 'SEDAN'.
However, I'm not clear how the anagram is indicated.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sedan that I've seen before include "Four-door car" , "Chair; car" , "Covered seat carried by bearers" , "Andes (anag.)" , "Type of chair - battle" .)
