Fraction of a ton (13)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hundredweight

(Other definitions for hundredweight that I've seen before include "cwt (there are 20 of them to the Imperial and American ton)" , "Old measure equal to one twentieth of a ton" , "amount?" , "Number" , "112 pounds (cwt)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
