The time of suffragettes? (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

age

'the time' is the definition.
(age is a kind of time)

'of suffragettes?' is the wordplay.
'of' indicates a hidden word.
'AGE' is hidden within 'suffragettes'.

(Other definitions for age that I've seen before include "Get older" , "Just a number" , "16/18 [INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION]" , "Time in years" , "Historic period" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
