Dwarfish creature (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gnome

'dwarfish creature' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for gnome that I've seen before include "Figure of sinister influence" , "Little garden person?" , "Small fellow" , "Swiss financier" , "Fairy-tale creature, in the garden perhaps" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
