Definition

noun

  • (UK, Scotland, dialect) A grass used for making ropes or for plaiting, especially Apera spica-venti.
    "Grey rocks did peep from the square moss, and stemmed / The struggling brook: tall spires of windlestrae / Threw their thin shadows down the rugged slope, / And nought but gnarlèd roots of ancient pines, / Branchless and blasted, clenched with grasping roots / The unwilling soil."
