Nape of the neck (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

scruff

'nape of the neck' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for scruff that I've seen before include "Back of a cat's neck" , "Part of neck" , "One hardly washing" , "Untidy chap" , "bit of neck?" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald, The Times, The Sunday Times and The Guardian.
