Hovel (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

slum

'hovel' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for slum that I've seen before include "Run-down housing area" , "Ghetto" , "Area of bad housing" , "Squalid and overcrowded urban area" , "Squalid neighbourhood" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard and The New York Times.
