Lust is sadly seen over Brighton & Hove? (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

salacity

'lust' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

I cannot understand how the remainder of the clue works.

(Another definition for salacity that I've seen is " Lewdness or eroticism".)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
