Five score in county division (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hundred

I believe this is a double definition.

'five score' is the first definition.
(five twenties)

'county division' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for hundred that I've seen before include "Old subdivision of a shire or county" , "See 19" , "Historical division of a county - number" , "Number - old part of a shire" , "part of Chilterns maybe" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
