Glimpse head of estate agent (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

espy

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

'head of estate agent' is the wordplay.
'head of' says to take the initial letters.
'agent' becomes 'spy' (spy is a kind of agent).
The initial letter of 'estate' is 'e'.
'e'+'spy'='ESPY'

(Other definitions for espy that I've seen before include "Make out at a distance" , "Spot; observe" , "Catch a glimpse of" , "Spot, notice" , "Observe, notice" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
