Green surface of parking spaces reported (5)
I believe the answer is:
baize
'green surface' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
I can't explain the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for baize that I've seen before include "table-topper" , "Billiards surface" , "Surface for 9" , "Green woollen cloth" , "Table covering material" .)
