Cryptic Clue Gb Places

[paceman1]

Just wish to check an answer:
CHANGE THE FIRST LETTER OF A SLEEPING PLACE INTO A VEGETABLE.
My answer CHARD only because its the only vegetable place I know.
Any other suggestions or reasoning please.

Are we still looking for Coastal places in GB?

[factor-fiction]

Do we know the answer is 5 letters?
I don't see where the 'sleeping place ' fits into it'.
Sleeping place could be bed, cot, manger, hotel...

[factor-fiction]

leek is a vegetable place ( I know it's not the answer but I'm suggesting there are other vegetable places). I need to look up a chard though- what is it?

[paceman1]

Yes COASTAL PLACEs 5 letters.

[factor-fiction]

Barrow if you replace the first letter of Marrow with a B from Bed.
(Although that doesn't tie in properly with the clue)

[paceman1]

how about Perth ?

berth - sleeping place
change b for p (pea - vegetable)

[Quizmonkey]

That sounds best

[paceman1]

Sounds good but has to be in GB.
I went for CHARD as perhaps you could sleep in the new SHARD building in London(don't know if you can?)
