Article Rosie emptied in that place (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

there

'in that place' is the definition.
(over there)

'article rosie emptied' is the wordplay.
'article' becomes 'the' (the definite article in English).
'emptied' suggests removing the centre.
'rosie' with its centre taken out is 're'.
'the'+'re'='THERE'

(Other definitions for there that I've seen before include "Exclamation of triumph or sympathy" , "in that case" , "It's said to comfort" , "In that respect" , "that particular place" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
