Pre-1832 constituency with few electors (6,7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rotten borough

(Other definitions for rotten borough that I've seen before include "English parliamentary constituency of a kind abolished by the 1832 Reform Act" , "Tiny-electorate seat (hist.)" , "Corrupt constituency in former times" , "old constituency" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
