Woman from tannery (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

anne

'woman' is the definition.
(woman's name)

'from tannery' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates a hidden word.
'ANNE' is hidden within 'tannery'.

(Other definitions for anne that I've seen before include "Girl's name" , "British queen" , "Green Gables girl" , "First name of two of Henry VIII's wives" , "Henry VIII's fourth wife" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
