Cargo near wrong side? (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

arrogance

'side?' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'cargo near wrong' is the wordplay.
'wrong' is an anagram indicator.
'cargo'+'near'='cargonear'
'cargonear' anagrammed gives 'ARROGANCE'.

(Other definitions for arrogance that I've seen before include "Wild self-importance" , "Excessive self-importance" , "Overbearing attitude of pride and insolence" , "disdain" , "Overweening self-importance" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sunday Times.
