One departing bar is heard (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

leaver

'one departing' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'bar is heard' is the wordplay.
'bar' becomes 'lever' (lever is a kind of bar).
'is heard' shows a homophone (sound like).
'lever' sounds like 'LEAVER'.

(Other definitions for leaver that I've seen before include "One departing" , "Person departing" .)
