As St Paul's finally said: march up (5)
I believe the answer is:
domed
'as st paul's' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'finally said march up' is the wordplay.
'finally' suggests the final letters.
'march' becomes 'demo' (as in a demonstration).
'up' is a reversal indicator (in down clue: letters go upwards).
The final letter of 'said' is 'd'.
'demo' in reverse letter order is 'omed'.
'd'+'omed'='DOMED'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for domed that I've seen before include "not flat!" , "cupola" , "with a meniscus" , "Shaped like rounded roof" , "Vaulted" .)
