Decorative strip on wall (6)

I believe the answer is:

frieze

(Other definitions for frieze that I've seen before include "Band of decoration around top of wall or building" , "Horizontal band of decoration on a wall near the ceiling" , "Architectural decoration" , "Sculpted or painted wall decoration" , "architectural feature" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
