Bowls and fields around end of green (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

arenas

'bowls' is the definition.
('arena' can be a synonym of 'bowl')

'fields around end of green' is the wordplay.
'fields' becomes 'areas' ('area' can be a synonym of 'field').
'around' is an insertion indicator.
'end of' suggests the final letters.
The final letter of 'green' is 'n'.
'areas' placed around 'n' is 'ARENAS'.

'and' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for arenas that I've seen before include "Stadia" , "Sports venues" , "Level areas in centres of sport stadiums" , "Spheres of activity, sporting perhaps" , "Spheres, areas of activity" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
