Earring worn to prevent the hole from closing up (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sleeper

(Other definitions for sleeper that I've seen before include "Earring" , "Supporting block on railway track" , "Long-inactive secret agent" , "Train with berths" , "Form of transport" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
