Island where you once sat next to small king (4)
I believe the answer is:
skye
'island' is the definition.
(Scottish island)
'you once sat next to small king' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'you' could be 'ye' (historical version of 'you') and 'ye' is present in the answer.
'small' could be 's' (abbreviation - e.g. clothes size) and 's' is present in the answer.
'king' could be 'k' (chess abbreviation) and 'k' is located in the answer.
No letters remain.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'where' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for skye that I've seen before include "somewhere off Scotland's west coast" , "Large Scottish island" , "Scottish location" , "Largest isle of the Inner Hebrides" , "Largest island of Scotland's Inner Hebrides" .)
