Comment unfavourably on part of roof (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

slate

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'comment unfavourably on' is the first definition.

'part of roof' is the second definition.

(Other definitions for slate that I've seen before include "Run down" , "Roofing plate" , "Rubbish" , "Blast" , "Roofing tile" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
