Place is an eyesore reportedly (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

site

'place' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'an eyesore reportedly' is the wordplay.
'an eyesore' becomes 'sight' (I've seen this before).
'reportedly' indicates a 'sounds like' (homophone) clue.
'sight' sounds like 'SITE'.

'is' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for site that I've seen before include "Location or piece of land" , "Locate, position" , "Where something is located" , "internet location" , "setting" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
