King's after gold in two churches, one linked to Canterbury? (7)
I believe the answer is:
chaucer
'king's' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'gold in two churches one linked to canterbury?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'gold' could be 'au' (Au is the chemical symbol for gold) and 'au' is found within the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'after' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for chaucer that I've seen before include "Geoffrey -, fourteenth century poet" , "Geoffrey --, English poet" , "Geoffrey . . . . . . ., author of 'The Canterbury Tales'" , "Geoffrey . . . . . . . wrote 'The Canterbury Tales'" , "14th-century English poet" .)
