Went round gallery, visiting bar (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rotated

'went round' is the definition.
(to rotate is to go round and round)

'gallery visiting bar' is the wordplay.
'gallery' becomes 'tate' (Tate Modern, Tate Britain etc).
'visiting' is an insertion indicator.
'bar' becomes 'rod' (both can mean a pole or stick).
'tate' inserted inside 'rod' is 'ROTATED'.

(Other definitions for rotated that I've seen before include "Turned in a circle around an axis" , "Turner did?" , "Turned around axis or central point" , "Turned round" , "Went round" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
