A drilling site (6,6)
I believe the answer is:
parade ground
This clue might be a double definition.
'a drilling' is the first definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't understand how they can define each other.
'site' is the second definition.

Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for parade ground that I've seen before include "square" , "where there may be a muster" , "Place for drill" , "Where troops muster" , "Military area" .)
