Recalled best place (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

spot

'place' is the definition.
(I know that place can be written as spot)

'recalled best' is the wordplay.
'recalled' says the letters should be written in reverse (to recall can mean to bring something back).
'best' becomes 'tops' (I've seen this in another clue).
'tops' in reverse letter order is 'SPOT'.

(Other definitions for spot that I've seen before include "precise location" , "Mark - position - perceive" , "jam > stain" , "Notice, see" , "Mark, dot" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
