Strip of Dundee requiring some alterations (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

denude

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

'strip' is the definition.
(I know that strip can be written as denude)

'dundee requiring some alterations' is the wordplay.
'dundee' can be anagrammed to 'DENUDE'.
But, I'm not sure how this is indicated.

'of' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for denude that I've seen before include "Strip cover from, as leaves from trees" , "Dundee (anag.)" , "Clear so that nothing is left" , "Uncover" , "Strip - expose" .)
