Doesn't possibly make port! (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ostend

'port' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'doesn't possibly' is the wordplay.
'possibly' indicates an anagram.
'doesnt' anagrammed gives 'OSTEND'.

'make' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for ostend that I've seen before include "Port - doesn't (anag)" , "cross-channel port" , "European port" , "Port in Belgium" , "Belgian port and resort" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
