Island where the lanes are windy? (2,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

st helena

'island' is the definition.
(British Overseas Territory island)

'the lanes are windy?' is the wordplay.
'are windy?' is an anagram indicator (windy suggests disruption).
'the'+'lanes'='thelanes'
'thelanes' anagrammed gives 'ST HELENA'.

'where' is the link.

(Other definitions for st helena that I've seen before include "Island in S Atlantic where Napoleon died" , "British island territory in the South Atlantic" , "British S. Atlantic isle" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
