Bill is a magistrate (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

beak

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'bill' is the first definition.
('beak' can be a synonym of 'bill')

'magistrate' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

'is a' is the link.

(Other definitions for beak that I've seen before include "Horny mouth of a bird" , "Mandible" , "Judge - bill" , "Magistrate (informal)" , "Nose (slang)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
