Most close (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nearest

'most close' is the definition.
('near' can be similar in meaning to 'close')

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for nearest that I've seen before include "Closest, being earnest" , "touching?" , "In greatest propinquity" , "Most local" , "Most adjacent" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
