Walked from Dorset (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

strode

'walked' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'from dorset' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates anagramming the letters (from the letters).
'dorset' with letters rearranged gives 'STRODE'.

(Other definitions for strode that I've seen before include "Paced" , "went on foot" , "Walked fast with long steps" , "Galumphed" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
