Well-known to have made a record (5)
I believe the answer is:
noted
I believe this clue is a double definition.
'well-known' is the first definition.
(I know that well-known can be written as noted)
'made a record' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)
'to have' is the link.
(Other definitions for noted that I've seen before include "Recorded in writing" , "taken down" , "Gaiter; oyster spawn" , "Remarkable" , "Scored" .)
