Circumference (5)

I believe the answer is:

girth

'circumference' is the definition.
(I know that girth is a type of circumference)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for girth that I've seen before include "Measure all round" , "Size of waist perhaps" , "Circumferential measure" , "Personal circumference" , "Distance around a person's body" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald, The Mirror, the King Feature Syndicate, the Evening Standard, the Newsday, the Penny Press, The Independent, The Guardian, The Telegraph, The New York Times and The Times.
