Entrance to terraces in Ulster ground? (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

turnstile

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'entrance' is the definition.
(I know that turnstile is a type of gate)

'terraces in ulster ground?' is the wordplay.
'terraces' becomes 't' (this could be a standard abbreviation I've not previously seen).
'ground?' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen 'ground' mean this ('grind' the letters into a new form)).
'in'+'ulster'='inulster'
'inulster' is an anagram of 'urnstile'.
't'+'urnstile'='TURNSTILE'

'to' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for turnstile that I've seen before include "Admission gate" , "Revolving gate" , "Means of regulating passage" , "Mechanical entry gate" , "Control for spectators' entry" .)
