4d...Soil we turned into ceramic block (5,3.3)

I have seen this answered in Another Place as CLEAR THE WAY, but I can't parse it at all. As usual I can't see where this is defined within the clue !

Thanks Mamy....but still can't see the definition !

You told me a few weeks ago that the definition is always the first or the last word in the clue, and in this case its either soil or block. If it was unblock, than it would make sense.
That no makes it sensible

Sorry guys.....still struggling !
If it is not blocked it is clear.
Look at the full clue.
Question Author
I give up but if you guys says its correct, than off to the post box it is !
put a comma after the word ceramic and a question mark after the word block and things should become clear to you Mikey
The full clue says..............'block? no'
Question Author
My brain is hurting guys and I may need to have a little lie down !
'Block?,no/'= Clear the way ....Don't block.


Not sure how clearer to make it
forgive typos

Don't worry Mamy...its just me being a bit thick today !
As I have remarked on another thread, this is what happens when we don't get the clue verbatim.
Maybe I'm just not explaining it well enough.
Question Author
Yes jack...I can see my mistake in the OP...apologies to all !
