Perimeters (5)
I believe the answer is:
edges
'perimeters' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for edges that I've seen before include "Des, e.g. (anag.)" , "Borders, rims" , "Slowly moves" , "They're farthest from the middle" , "Sharpened sides of knives etc" .)
