Close-ranked mass (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

phalanx

(Other definitions for phalanx that I've seen before include "Solid formation of soldiers" , "Ancient Greek battle formation" , "Compact infantry mass; finger bone" , "Packed crowd of people" , "Closely ranked crowd of people" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
