Gardening trough designed for catchment area (9-6)
I believe the answer is:
gathering-ground
'catchment area' is the definition.
'gardening trough designed' is the wordplay.
'designed' is an anagram indicator (designed with the letters).
'gardening'+'trough'='gardeningtrough'
'gardeningtrough' is an anagram of 'GATHERING GROUND'.
'for' acts as a link.
I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
