Travelling on Bali from Britain in the past (6)

I believe the answer is:

albion

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

'britain in the past' is the definition.
'albion' can be an answer for 'britain' (I've seen this before). I am unsure of the 'in the past' bit.

'travelling on bali' is the wordplay.
'travelling' indicates an anagram.
'on'+'bali'='onbali'
'onbali' with letters rearranged gives 'ALBION'.

'from' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for albion that I've seen before include "soccer team" , "No bail for old England" , "Poetic name for old England" , "country" , "Albino in old England" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times (Crosaire) and The Irish Times.
