In Baltimore a road back (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rear

'back' is the definition.
(I know that back can be written as rear)

'in baltimore a road' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'REAR' is hidden in the letters of 'baltimore a road'.

(Other definitions for rear that I've seen before include "Buck" , "Raise - back" , "The back part of something" , "Rare at the back" , "Bring up - the tail" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
