State where man's hip replaced (3,9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

new hampshire

'state' is the definition.
(New Hampshire is an example)

'where man's hip replaced' is the wordplay.
'replaced' is an anagram indicator.
'where'+'mans'+'hip'='wheremanship'
'wheremanship' anagrammed gives 'NEW HAMPSHIRE'.

(Other definitions for new hampshire that I've seen before include "A NE US state" , "State of New England" , "Part of America" , "Northeast US state" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and The Telegraph.
