PM over in Irish county (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mayo

'irish county' is the definition.
(county in Ireland)

'pm over' is the wordplay.
'pm' becomes 'May' (former UK prime minister Theresa May).
'over' becomes 'o' (cricket abbreviation).
'may'+'o'='MAYO'

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for mayo that I've seen before include "part of Ireland" , "radio presenter" , "County of north-west Ireland" , "Irish county; dressing" , "Ir. county; salad dressing" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
