Very little in short street that’s charming (5)
I believe the answer is:
sweet
'charming' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'very little in short street that's' is the wordplay.
'very little' becomes 'wee' (I've seen this in another clue).
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'short' indicates taking the first letters.
The first letters of 'street thats' is 'st'.
'wee' going inside 'st' is 'SWEET'.
(Other definitions for sweet that I've seen before include "Sour companion" , "bon-bon" , "Amiable" , "Humbug!" , "Dulcet - dessert" .)
