Gallows loop (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

noose

'gallows loop' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for noose that I've seen before include "Loop of rope with a slipknot" , "Looped rope" , "form of punishment" , "Ring of rope" , "Hangman's equipment" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun and the Universal.
