Crossword Genius

Regarding last of houses (2,2)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

as to

'regarding' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'last of houses' is the wordplay.
'houses' indicates a hidden word (part of the clue houses the answer).
'AS TO' can be found hidden inside 'last of'.

(Another definition for as to that I've seen is " Concerning".)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
