Passage blocker, maybe

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nay

(Other definitions for nay that I've seen before include "telling a nicker from a pony?" , "Negative answer" , "Negative response" , "Archaic negative" , "In point of fact - a parliamentary vote against" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
