Conceals missing front in garden features (7)
I believe the answer is:
arbours
'garden features' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are plural nouns, I can't understand how they can define each other.
'conceals missing front' is the wordplay.
'conceals' becomes 'harbours' (harbouring is a kind of concealing).
'missing front' means to remove the first letter.
'harbours' with its first letter taken off is 'ARBOURS'.
'in' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for arbours that I've seen is " Frameworks supporting climbing plants".)
