Old actress Mae’s direction (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

west

I believe this is a double definition.

'old actress mae's' is the first definition.
(American actress Mae West)

'direction' is the second definition.
(compass direction)

(Other definitions for west that I've seen before include "Occident" , "Colombian with brews (anag)" , "Dog (from Argyll?)" , "'Go ___ , young man'" , "Mae -, US actress; W" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
