Gold within crazily loaded place? (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

eldorado

'place?' is the definition.
(mythical golden city)

'gold within crazily loaded' is the wordplay.
'gold' becomes 'or' ('or' is the heraldic name for gold).
'within' indicates putting letters inside.
'crazily' indicates anagramming the letters.
'loaded' anagrammed gives 'eldado'.
'or' put within 'eldado' is 'ELDORADO'.

(Other definitions for eldorado that I've seen before include "city of riches" , "wealthy location" , "source of wealth" , "city, apparently lost" , "rich land, so many thought" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
