Some feel magic in this wood (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

elm

'this wood' is the definition.
(elm is a type of tree)

'some feel magic in' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates a hidden word.
'ELM' is hidden within 'some feel magic'.

(Other definitions for elm that I've seen before include "Tree of the genus Ulmus" , "Source of timber" , "Mel's tree" , "Large tree" , "Tough timber" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
