Go back from front? (7)
I believe the answer is:
retreat
This could be a double definition.
'go' is the first definition.
(I know that retreat is a more specific form of go)
'back from front?' is the second definition.
'retreat' can be an answer for 'back' (thesaurus). I'm not certain of the 'from front?' bit.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for retreat that I've seen before include "unhappy manoeuvre" , "care home" , "withdrawal" , "retirement" , "snug" .)
