Baal centres? Very different from these places of worship! (11)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tabernacles

'these places of worship' is the definition.
(tabernacle is a type of place of worship)

'baal centres? very different' is the wordplay.
'very different' is an anagram indicator.
'baal'+'centres'='baalcentres'
'baalcentres' anagrammed gives 'TABERNACLES'.

'from' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for tabernacles that I've seen before include "seen in places of worship" , "English name for Sukkoth" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
