Wearing away (7)

Ross

I think it could be either:

erosion

eroding

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">wearing away</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(synonyms)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for erosion that I've seen before include "The wearing away by water or weather" , "Gradual decline" , "dying away" , "being eaten away" , "The gradual wearing away by weather" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald, the Penny Press, The Independent, The Telegraph, The Mirror and The Star Tribune.
