Small county (7)

I believe the answer is:

rutland

'small county' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for rutland that I've seen before include "England's smallest county" , "East Midlands county" , "Tiny county" , "Small English county" , "Smallest of the historical English counties" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
