Loud sound of explosion in central Harrow (4)
I believe the answer is:
roar
'loud sound' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'explosion in central harrow' is the wordplay.
'explosion' becomes 'oa' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'central' means to look at the middle letters.
The middle of 'harrow' is 'rr'.
'oa' put within 'rr' is 'ROAR'.
'of' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for roar that I've seen before include "Loud noise of angry bull" , "Bellow, holler" , "Bawl, bellow" , "The __ of the Greasepaint -- The Smell of the Crowd (1964 musical)" , "Deep loud sound as of lion or bull" .)
