Save new building in the countryside? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

barn

'building in the countryside?' is the definition.

'save new' is the wordplay.
'save' becomes 'bar' (I've seen this before).
'new' becomes 'n'.
'bar'+'n'='BARN'

(Other definitions for barn that I've seen before include "Farm store" , "Bran stored in farm shed" , "Large farm building" , "spacious accommodation" , "Farm 4 down" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
