Blamed for the mad-house (6)
I believe the answer is:
bedlam
'the mad-house' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'blamed' is the wordplay.
'blamed' can be anagrammed to 'BEDLAM'.
However, I'm unsure how this is indicated.
'for' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for bedlam that I've seen before include "Blamed for deafening noise" , "Blames for uproar" , "Noisy confused state" , "chaotic state" , "Mayhem" .)
