Crossword Genius

Redesigned part in apse belongs (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

appertains

'belongs' is the definition.
(appertaining is a kind of belonging)

'redesigned part in apse' is the wordplay.
'redesigned' indicates anagramming the letters.
'part'+'in'+'apse'='partinapse'
'partinapse' with letters rearranged gives 'APPERTAINS'.
