Counties with a common end (6)
I believe the answer is:
shires
'counties' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are plural nouns, I can't see how one could define the other.
I don't understand the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for shires that I've seen is " Large heavy draft horses in Britain".)
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
