Feature a church in newspaper (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

facet

'feature' is the definition.
(I know that facet is a type of feature)

'a church in newspaper' is the wordplay.
'church' becomes 'ce' (Church of England).
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'newspaper' becomes 'FT' (Financial Times newspaper).
'a'+'ce'='ace'
'ace' placed within 'ft' is 'FACET'.

(Other definitions for facet that I've seen before include "Flat surface on a cut gem" , "Smooth surface of a gem" , "view" , "Look" , "Distinct feature" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
