Shopping area in Minehead seen by everybody (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mall

'shopping area' is the definition.
(shopping mall)

'minehead seen by everybody' is the wordplay.
'minehead' becomes 'm' (head letter of 'mine').
'seen by' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'everybody' becomes 'all' (all people).
'm'+'all'='MALL'

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for mall that I've seen before include "Covered complex of shops or path by a canal" , "Covered shopping centre" , "Shopping precinct" , "Mercantile centre" , "Glowing material in fire" .)
