That in Germany once? (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

yon

'that' is the definition.
(archaic term meaning 'that')

'in germany once?' is the wordplay.
'in' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'YON' is hidden within 'germany once'.

(Another definition for yon that I've seen is " Those Scots".)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
