Scottish landowners (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lairds

'scottish landowners' is the definition.
('laird' is a Scottish term for a landowner)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for lairds that I've seen before include "Men of property" , "Members of northern gentry" , "Scots landowners" , "Important northerners" , "wealthy Scots?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph and The Irish Times.
