Not giving away shilling in commercial areas (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hoardings

'commercial areas' is the definition.

'not giving away shilling' is the wordplay.
'not giving away' becomes 'hoarding'.
'shilling' becomes 's'.
'hoarding'+'s'='HOARDINGS'

'in' is the link.

I've seen this clue in The Times.
