Notices different part (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

section

'part' is the definition.
(I know that part can be written as section)

'notices different' is the wordplay.
'different' indicates an anagram (letters placed in a different order).
'notices' anagrammed gives 'SECTION'.

(Other definitions for section that I've seen before include "Department, division" , "Subdivision of a newspaper" , "Divide; part" , "Distinct part" , "branch" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
