Crossword Genius

Gets rid of outhouses (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sheds

I believe this is a double definition.

'gets rid' is the first definition.
(to shed is to cast off or get rid of)

'outhouses' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

'of' is the link.

(Other definitions for sheds that I've seen before include "Discards" , "Gets rid" , "Small huts as used in gardens" , "Casts off the outhouses?" , "Casts off the outbuildings" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
