More strict or uncompromising (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sterner

(Other definitions for sterner that I've seen before include "more inflexible anyway" , "Renters of more strict sort" , "More grimly serious" , "More severe" , "More demanding" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
