Back of a ship (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

'back of a ship' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for stern that I've seen before include "Unyielding - rump" , "Demanding < back" , "Unsmiling" , "Grim; severe" , "Rear of a vessel" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post, the Newsday and The New York Times.
