See Welshwoman's delightful (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

elysian

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'delightful' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are adjectives. Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?

'see welshwoman's' is the wordplay.
'see' becomes 'ely' (see is a place with a cathedral - e.g. Ely).
'welshwoman' becomes 'sian' (common Welsh name).
'ely'+'sian'='ELYSIAN'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for elysian that I've seen before include "Of abode of the blessed dead in Greek mythology" , "of the most beautiful fields" , "Any isle (anag.)" , "glorious" , "Heavenly" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
