Two chaps providing capital cover in Kyle of Localsh? (9)
I believe the answer is:
glengarry
'capital cover in kyle of localsh?' is the definition.
(type of Scottish hat)
'two chaps' is the wordplay.
'two chaps' can mean two replacements for 'chap'.
'chap' becomes 'glen'.
'chap' becomes 'garry'.
'glen'+'garry'='GLENGARRY'
'providing' is the link.
(Other definitions for glengarry that I've seen before include "Scottish (military) cap" , "Highlanders' cap with ribbons" , "Scottish Highlander's cap" , "headgear" , "Scotch cap with pointed front and ribbons at back" .)
