Dismissal of Wellington? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

boot

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'dismissal' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'wellington?' is the second definition.
(Wellington boots are a type of shoe)

'of' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for boot that I've seen before include "Sack" , "Sturdy shoe; start (a computer)" , "Car luggage space; kick" , "Dismiss" , "Hard kick; part of car" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
