Not heading into restricted hospital areas? (8)
I believe the answer is:
outwards
'not heading into' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'restricted hospital areas?' is the wordplay.
'restricted' becomes 'out' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'hospital areas?' becomes 'wards' (I've seen this in another clue).
'out'+'wards'='OUTWARDS'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for outwards that I've seen before include "Away from the centre" , "In an external direction" .)
