Some garden figures (6)
I believe the answer is:
gnomes
'some garden figures' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for gnomes that I've seen before include "Zurich goblins" , "Legendary little men, in the garden perhaps" , "Ornamental garden figures" , "Legendary dwarfs" , "Legendary creatures" .)
