Decorative covering for a curtain rail (6)

I believe the answer is:

pelmet

(Other definitions for pelmet that I've seen before include "Ornamental strip above window to conceal curtain rail" , "Temple (anag)" , "Fringe hiding a curtain rod" , "Fringe over a curtain rail" , "Narrow border across top of window" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
