Crossword Genius

Wind up judge (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

conclude

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'wind up' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'judge' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for conclude that I've seen before include "Finish - deduce" , "Bring or come to an end (8)" , "Infer or bring to an end" , "Reach an opinion based on reasoning" , "Decide - terminate" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent and The Telegraph.
