Tory disarray in the city (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

troy

'city' is the definition.
(Troy is an example)

'tory disarray' is the wordplay.
'disarray' indicates an anagram.
'tory' is an anagram of 'TROY'.

'in the' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for troy that I've seen before include "Ancient city known for Helen and a Wooden Horse" , "The war for it, Homer" , "Ancient city associated with a wooden horse" , "See 7" , "Ancient city in Asia Minor" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
