Loner (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hermit

'loner' is the definition.
(hermit is a kind of loner)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for hermit that I've seen before include "Ascetic who leads an isolated life" , "Solitary person, anchorite" , "A recluse or a crab" , "Kind of crab that lives in a cast-off shell" , "Solitary dweller" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
