River in stretch of rolling land or field? (5)
I believe the answer is:
reach
I believe this clue is a quintuple definition!!
'river' is the first definition.
(I know that reach is a type of river)
'in' acts as a link.
'stretch' is the second definition.
(synonyms)
'of' is a link.
'rolling' is the third definition.
The answer and definition can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I can't see?
'land' is the fourth definition.
(thesaurus)
'or' acts as a link.
'field?' is the fifth definition.
(thesaurus)
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for reach that I've seen before include "It's an advantage for a boxer" , "bay" , "Stretch of a river between two bends" , "Extend an arm" , "Grasp" .)
