Earl of —, title created in 1661 for Edward Hyde, Lord Chancellor from 1658-67 (9)

I believe the answer is:

clarendon

(Other definitions for clarendon that I've seen before include "bold type" , "Chief adviser to Charles II; clan drone (anag.)" , "Oxford type" , "heavy-faced type" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
