Beautiful kind of tent at the centre of a field (5)
I believe the answer is:
belle
'beautiful kind' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot see how they can define each other.
'tent at the centre of a field' is the wordplay.
'tent' becomes 'bell tent' (bell tent is a kind of tent).
'at' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'the centre of' indicates the central letters.
The centre of 'field' is 'e'.
'bell'+'e'='BELLE'
'of' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for belle that I've seen before include "Beautiful girl" , "Girl who's fetching" , "Attractive woman" , "Most attractive girl" , "Pretty girl" .)
