Framework in which the Parisian traps Greek (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lattice

'framework' is the definition.
(lattice is a kind of framework)

'the parisian traps greek' is the wordplay.
'the parisian' becomes 'le' (definite article in French).
'traps' is an insertion indicator.
'greek' becomes 'attic' (from ancient Athens or Attica).
'le' going around 'attic' is 'LATTICE'.

'in which' is the link.

(Other definitions for lattice that I've seen before include "Framework of crossed laths or bars" , "Web" , "Tactile (anag) - grille" , "Network of crossed bars" , "Regular arrangement" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
