Live around a mile beyond the eastern edge of Liverpool, still (6)
I believe the answer is:
becalm
'still' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'live around a mile beyond the eastern edge of liverpool' is the wordplay.
'live' becomes 'be' (synonyms).
'around' indicates putting letters inside.
'a mile beyond' becomes 'mac' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'the eastern' says the letters should be written backwards (letters written right to left or east to west).
'edge of' says to take the final letters (one of the letters on the edge of the word).
The last letter of 'liverpool' is 'l'.
'mac' back-to-front is 'cam'.
'cam' going around 'l' is 'calm'.
'be'+'calm'='BECALM'
Can you help me to learn more?
