Inbred local put away (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

innate

'inbred' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'local put away' is the wordplay.
'local' becomes 'inn' (I've seen this before).
'put away' becomes 'ate' (I've seen this in other clues).
'inn'+'ate'='INNATE'

(Other definitions for innate that I've seen before include "Present from birth" , "Inborn in neat way" , "Bred in the bone, one might say" , "Congenital" , "Inherent or inborn" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
