Crossword Genius

Ignore rearrangement of a district (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

region

'a district' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'ignore rearrangement' is the wordplay.
'rearrangement' indicates an anagram.
'ignore' with letters rearranged gives 'REGION'.

'of' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for region that I've seen before include "Area, domain" , "Kind of territory to ignore" , "Part of a country" , "Tract or area" , "Area - district" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
