Crossword Genius

Lost dignity doing some work around house (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tidying

'doing some work around house' is the definition.
(cleaning up one's house)

'lost dignity' is the wordplay.
'lost' indicates anagramming the letters.
'dignity' is an anagram of 'TIDYING'.

(Other definitions for tidying that I've seen before include "Making neater" , "Dignity (anag)" , "Making neat" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
