Crossword Genius

Bully put away after quarrel in B&B (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

browbeat

'bully' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'put away after quarrel in bb' is the wordplay.
'put away' becomes 'eat' (I've seen this before**).
'after' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'quarrel' becomes 'row' ('row' can be a synonym of 'quarrel').
'in' is an insertion indicator.
'row' inserted into 'bb' is 'browb'.
'eat' put after 'browb' is 'BROWBEAT'.

(Other definitions for browbeat that I've seen before include "cow" , "Intimidate with words" , "Threaten - bully" , "Hector" , "Bully verbally" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
