Ignore a fault or have a view from above (8)
I believe the answer is:
overlook
'ignore a fault or have a view from above' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for overlook that I've seen before include "Give a view from above - miss" , "Ignore or fail to see" , "Fail to observe or consider" , "Ignore or fail to notice" , "Ignore a fault or have a view from above" .)
