Projecting ridge (on a mountain or underwater) (5)

I believe the answer is:

ledge

(Other definitions for ledge that I've seen before include "Shelf-life projection" , "Narrow shelf, often attached to window" , "Surface under e.g. window" , "Ridge or shelf" , "rocky situation?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
