Ladies maybe excited by TS Eliot (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

toilets

'ladies maybe' is the definition.
(ladies' toilets)

'excited by ts eliot' is the wordplay.
'excited' indicates anagramming the letters.
'by' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'ts' after 'eliot' is 'eliotts'.
'eliotts' anagrammed gives 'TOILETS'.

(Other definitions for toilets that I've seen before include "Heads" , "Perfume from iris root" , "Conveniences" , "Plumbing fixtures" , "Lavatories" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
