Irritable, being on the fringes? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

edgy

This clue is a double definition.

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

'on the fringes?' is the second definition.
(on the edges)

'being' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for edgy that I've seen before include "Overstrung" , "ready to flap?" , "Sharp in outline" , "Nervous and tense, irritable" , "Keyed up" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
