Form new heaps (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

shape

'form' is the definition.
(I know that form can be written as shape)

'new heaps' is the wordplay.
'new' is an anagram indicator.
'heaps' with letters rearranged gives 'SHAPE'.

(Other definitions for shape that I've seen before include "Mould into new phase" , "Form; mould" , "Phase (anag.)" , "Form, figure" , "Square, circle, etc." .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
