Chimney lining (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

soot

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

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for soot that I've seen before include "Carbon deposit from burning" , "Smut" , "Chimney deposit" , "Something stuck down the chimney" , "Carbon dust from fire" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
