outer hebrides

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

'wandering tribe rehoused in islands' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'wandering tribe rehoused' is the wordplay.
'wandering' indicates anagramming the letters.
'tribe'+'rehoused'='triberehoused'
'triberehoused' with letters rearranged gives 'OUTER HEBRIDES'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for outer hebrides that I've seen before include "Scots isles" , "remote Scottish area" , "Island group containing Lewis and Harris" , "Lewis and Harris location" , "The Western Isles" .)
