Court official who serves writs, makes arrests etc (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bailiff

(Other definitions for bailiff that I've seen before include "Landowner's agent" , "Sheriff's officer - landlord's agent" , "Officer of court" , "Landlord's agent or steward" , "Law officer who helps sheriff, say to foreclose" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
