I believe the answer is:

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">methodist</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(a Wesleyan is a type of Methodist)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for wesleyan that I've seen before include "Chapel" , "religious type" , "Chapelgoer" , "Methodist" , "Nonconformist" .)
