Former youth detention centre (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

borstal

(Other definitions for borstal that I've seen before include "Former youth prison" , "Brendan Behan's autobiography: ''. . . . . . . Boy''" , "offenders used to be confined here" , "former institution" , "Old institution" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
