Drunk from Clitheroe (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lit

'drunk' is the definition.
(slang term)

'from clitheroe' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates a hidden word.
'LIT' is hidden in the letters of 'clitheroe'.

(Other definitions for lit that I've seen before include "landed here" , "Illuminated" , "Creative writing, in short" , "Set alight" , "Fired" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
