'viewed well' is the definition.
'reputed' can be an answer for 'viewed' (thesaurus). I'm not certain of the 'well' bit.

'place covered by grass' is the wordplay.
'place' becomes 'put' (synonyms).
'covered by' indicates putting letters inside.
'grass' becomes 'reed' (type of grass plant).
'put' inserted inside 'reed' is 'REPUTED'.

'is' acts as a link.
