Dignified area in Georgian city (7)
I believe the answer is:
augusta
'georgian city' is the definition.
'augusta' can be an answer for 'city' (Augusta is an example). I am not certain of the 'georgian' bit.
'dignified area' is the wordplay.
'dignified' becomes 'august' (august can mean regal or noble).
'area' becomes 'a' (maths abbreviation).
'august'+'a'='AUGUSTA'
'in' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for augusta that I've seen before include "Lady Bracknell" , "US city" , "Girl - state capital" , "American city" , "City of Georgia" .)
