King, Scot, from a bygone time (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

edwardian

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'a bygone time' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how they can define each other.

'king scot' is the wordplay.
'king' becomes 'edward' (I've seen this before).
'scot' becomes 'ian'.
'edward'+'ian'='EDWARDIAN'

'from' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for edwardian that I've seen before include "Early 20th-century" , "From the years 1901 to 1910?" , "After Victoria" , "The age before WW1" , "Of the fashion mocked by Teddy boys" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
