Capital person settled in manor (5)
I believe the answer is:
roman
'capital' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'person settled in manor' is the wordplay.
'manor' can be anagrammed to 'ROMAN'.
However, I'm not clear how the anagram is indicated.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for roman that I've seen before include "French story" , "of foreign city" , "Does this citizen live in a manor?" , "Norma (anag) -- upright style of print" , "Style of upright type" .)
