Hotel near Morecambe where one's depressed and tense, with yen for central London? (5,4)
I believe the answer is:
inner city
'hotel near morecambe where one's depressed and tense with yen' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'central london?' is the wordplay.
'central' becomes 'inner' (similar in meaning).
'london?' becomes 'city' (london is a kind of city).
'inner'+'city'='INNER-CITY'
'for' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for inner city that I've seen before include "Urban sprawl" , "Centre of conurbation" , "In run-down area" , "Urban centre" .)
