I believe the answer is:

nantes

(Other definitions for nantes that I've seen before include "Site of historic drownings" , "City on the Loire, associated with 1598 edict ending the French Wars of Religion" , "City and port of W. France on the Loire" , "Port city in western France" , "in Pays de la Loire?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
