Came to an end (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ceased

'came to an end' is the definition.
('cease' can be a synonym of 'come to an end')

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for ceased that I've seen before include "Finished" , "Came to an end" , "Terminated" , "Came to a close" , "Stopped, quitted" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times and the Sydney Morning Herald.
