A golden part of Ireland? (7)
I believe the answer is:
donegal
'ireland?' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'a golden part' is the wordplay.
'part' is an anagram indicator (I've seen 'parts of' mean this).
'a'+'golden'='agolden'
'agolden' with letters rearranged gives 'DONEGAL'.
'of' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for donegal that I've seen before include "Ireland's northmost county" , "Lean dog (anag) - Irish county" , "part of Ireland" , "Irish town" , "town and county" .)
