Key for ward (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

minor

This clue is a double definition.

'key' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'ward' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for minor that I've seen before include "Like clubs" , "Insignificant" , "Young person below voting age" , "Unimportant or unable to vote" , "Secondary" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
