Broad strip or area (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

Which length description are you looking for?:

5

6

swathe

This clue is a double definition.

'broad strip' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'area' is the second definition.
(I have seen 'Broad area ' mean 'swathe' so perhaps 'area' could also mean 'swathe')

(Other definitions for swathe that I've seen before include "row after reaping" , "An enveloping bandage" , "Broad strip (land)" , "Cover" , "Wrap; a cut strip" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
