Shopping area - area raced around (6)
I believe the answer is:
arcade
'shopping area' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'area raced around' is the wordplay.
'area' becomes 'a' (maths abbreviation).
'around' is an anagram indicator.
'raced' with letters rearranged gives 'rcade'.
'a'+'rcade'='ARCADE'
(Other definitions for arcade that I've seen before include "Covered passage of e.g. shops" , "Covered passage with shops on both sides" , "covered avenue of shops" , "Covered (shopping) walk" , "Shopping passage" .)
