Rugby fellow going over part of Belgium (5)
I believe the answer is:
namur
'part of belgium' is the definition.
(I know that Namur is part of Belgium)
'rugby fellow going over' is the wordplay.
'rugby' becomes 'RU'.
'fellow' becomes 'man' (fellow can mean a man).
'going over' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'ru'+'man'='ruman'
'ruman' back-to-front is 'NAMUR'.
(Another definition for namur that I've seen is " Belgian city and province".)
I've seen this clue in The Times.
