Temple for duke in UK location (7)

I believe the answer is:

watford

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'uk location' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'temple for duke' is the wordplay.
'temple' becomes 'wat' (type of Asian temple eg Angkor Wat).
'duke' becomes 'd' (abbreviation).
'wat'+'for'+'d'='WATFORD'

'in' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for watford that I've seen before include "Hertfordshire town" , "Town north of London" , "Town NW of London, within the M 25" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
