Be let out I fancy from dungeon (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

oubliette

'dungeon' is the definition.
(oubliette is a kind of dungeon)

'be let out i fancy' is the wordplay.
'fancy' indicates an anagram.
'be'+'let'+'out'+'i'='beletouti'
'beletouti' anagrammed gives 'OUBLIETTE'.

'from' is the link.

(Another definition for oubliette that I've seen is " Trapdoor-accessed dungeon".)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
