View of one of Britain's invaders? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

angle

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

'view' is the definition.
(angle is a kind of view)

'one of britain's invaders?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'one' could be 'an' (an apple is one apple) and 'an' is located in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'of' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for angle that I've seen before include "A way of approaching" , "Germanic invader" , "Glean (anag.)" , "Approach to problem" , "Standpoint" .)
