Clean with a broom (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sweep

'clean with a broom' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for sweep that I've seen before include "Stroke at the crease" , "Long oar" , "if clean, could result in a whitewash" , "Windmill sail" , "Raffle" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday, The Mirror, the Universal, the New York Times, the USA Today, The Times and the Irish Times (Simplex).
