Crossword Genius

Admission by article during recent changes (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

entrance

'admission' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'article during recent changes' is the wordplay.
'article' becomes 'an' (indefinite article).
'during' is an insertion indicator.
'changes' indicates anagramming the letters.
'recent' is an anagram of 'entrce'.
'an' put into 'entrce' is 'ENTRANCE'.

'by' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for entrance that I've seen before include "arrival" , "Way in - fascinate" , "Means or place of going in" , "appearance" , "Right of admission" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
