Nigel's new place (5)
I believe the answer is:
elgin
'place' is the definition.
(I have seen 'Scottish place' mean 'elgin' so perhaps 'place' could also mean 'elgin')
'nigel's new' is the wordplay.
'new' indicates an anagram.
'nigel' is an anagram of 'ELGIN'.
(Other definitions for elgin that I've seen before include "Scottish earl who took statues from the Parthenon" , "Scottish burgh" , "Scottish admin centre" , "One carrying off temple sections" , "one who removed antiquities" .)
