Crossword Genius

Lord of a Belgian province (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

liege

This clue is a double definition.

'lord' is the first definition.
(feudal term for a superior)

'a belgian province' is the second definition.
(Liege is a province of Belgium)

'of' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for liege that I've seen before include "World War one battle site" , "Old sovereign" , "Chieftain" , "Belgian city or ancient lord" , "Feudal (lord); vassal" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
