Crossword Genius

Line from 'Lepanto' (Chesterton) (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

oche

'line' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'from lepanto chesterton' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates a hidden word.
'OCHE' is hidden within 'lepanto chesterton'.

(Other definitions for oche that I've seen before include "Line from which dart-player throws" , "Line where dart thrower stands" , "Dart player's mark" , "Line at which darts player stands to throw" , "sporting line" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
