Ditch around a castle (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

moat

'ditch around a castle' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for moat that I've seen before include "defensive construction" , "Ditch used as a defence" , "A deep water-filled ditch around a castle" , "Last ditch defence?" , "Trench around fortifications" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate, The Independent, the Family Time and the USA Today.
