In Scotland, fireplace is essential for drawing-room completion (5)
I believe the answer is:
ingle
'in scotland fireplace' is the definition.
'ingle' can be an answer for 'fireplace' (I've seen this before). I am not sure about the 'in scotland' bit.
I cannot understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for ingle that I've seen before include "Dizziness from imbalance" , "An old-fashioned fireplace, maybe with nook" , "Fireplace blaze (Scot.)" , "Fireplace and Irish Times writer" , "Fireplace in a room" .)
