Covered up by Swiss or Cypriots' type of crucifix (1,5)
I believe the answer is:
y cross
'covered up by swiss or cypriots' type' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'crucifix' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'crucifix' could be 'cross' (I've seen this before) and 'cross' is found within the answer.
A single letter 'y' remains which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'of' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
