City forward going to hospital (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

perth

'city' is the definition.
(Perth is an example)

'forward going to hospital' is the wordplay.
'forward' becomes 'pert' (I've seen this before).
'going to' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'hospital' becomes 'h'.
'pert'+'h'='PERTH'

(Other definitions for perth that I've seen before include "Scottish/Australian city" , "Capital of Western Australia" , "Western Australia's capital" , "Home of fair maid" , "Period (of effort)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
