Lost rib, shot in city (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bristol

'city' is the definition.
(Bristol is an example)

'lost rib shot' is the wordplay.
'shot' indicates an anagram.
'lost'+'rib'='lostrib'
'lostrib' anagrammed gives 'BRISTOL'.

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for bristol that I've seen before include "Port in SW England" , "West country port" , "car" , "Port and industrial city in southwest England" , "10 in SW England" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
