Rabat girl moved somewhere just north of her country (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gibraltar

'somewhere just north of her country' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'rabat girl moved' is the wordplay.
'moved' indicates anagramming the letters.
'rabat'+'girl'='rabatgirl'
'rabatgirl' is an anagram of 'GIBRALTAR'.

(Other definitions for gibraltar that I've seen before include "British-ruled promontory at the southern tip of Spain" , "disputed territory" , "British dependency" , "Great rock at south of Spain" , "UK territory" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
