Small shallow lake (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mere

(Other definitions for mere that I've seen before include "Simply, nothing more than" , "Nothing more than what is specified (4)" , "of no significance" , "Pool -- pure and simple" , "Bare, simple" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
