Reconstruct buried ruins round lake (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rebuild

'reconstruct' is the definition.
('rebuild' can be a synonym of 'reconstruct')

'buried ruins round lake' is the wordplay.
'ruins' is an anagram indicator.
'round' indicates putting letters inside.
'lake' becomes 'l'.
'buried' with letters rearranged gives 'rebuid'.
'rebuid' going around 'l' is 'REBUILD'.

(Another definition for rebuild that I've seen is " Construct again".)
