Crossword Genius

Covered passage having a twisted cedar (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

arcade

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

'a twisted cedar' is the wordplay.
'twisted' indicates anagramming the letters.
'cedar' anagrammed gives 'rcade'.
'a'+'rcade'='ARCADE'

'having' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for arcade that I've seen before include "covered avenue of shops" , "Covered passage containing shops" , "Covered walkway with shops" , "Arched passageway between shops" , "Covered way with shops on either side" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
