Banish from Carnoustie (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

oust

'banish' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'from carnoustie' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates a hidden word.
'OUST' can be found hidden inside 'carnoustie'.

(Other definitions for oust that I've seen before include "Show the door to" , "Put out, say of office" , "Expel (from a place)" , "Depose" , "Remove from a position of power" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
