Landowner, historically (6)

I believe the answer is:

squire

(Other definitions for squire that I've seen before include "English country landowner" , "Local landowner; knight's attendant" , "Old landowner" , "[PILGRIM in the CANTERBURY TALES]" , "Country gentleman" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
