South African of Dutch ancestry (4)
I believe the answer is:
boer
'south african of dutch ancestry' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for boer that I've seen before include "South African such as President Kruger" , "one from East London perhaps" , "South African descended from Dutch settlers" , "Wars between British Empire and South Africa" , "South African inhabitant" .)
