Strode around the county (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dorset

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

'strode around' is the wordplay.
'around' is an anagram indicator.
'strode' with letters rearranged gives 'DORSET'.

(Other definitions for dorset that I've seen before include "Weymouth's county" , "Sorted out the southern English county" , "South coast county" , "South-west area" , "Hardy country" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
