I believe the answer is:

lairds

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">scottish landowners</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">('laird' is a Scottish term for a landowner)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(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.
