Monastery leader (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

abbot

'monastery leader' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for abbot that I've seen before include "Head of religious house" , "Monks' superior" , "Head of abbey" , "Monastic authority" , "Head of monastery" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday, the Universal and the Penny Press.
