Fellow on farm given a scarf (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mantilla

'scarf' is the definition.
(mantilla is a kind of scarf)

'fellow on farm given a' is the wordplay.
'fellow' becomes 'man' (I've seen this before).
'on' says to put letters next to each other.
'farm' becomes 'till' (I've seen this before).
'given' says to put letters next to each other.
'man'+'till'+'a'='MANTILLA'

(Other definitions for mantilla that I've seen before include "Spanish lace shawl" , "Something worn" , "Scarf worn over head and shoulders by Spanish women" , "Spanish lady's headdress" , "Woman's silk or lace scarf - I'm all tan (anag)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
