Street with widespread discord (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

strife

'discord' is the definition.
(I know that discord can be written as strife)

'street with widespread' is the wordplay.
'street' becomes 'st' (abbreviation).
'with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'widespread' becomes 'rife' (I've seen this in another clue).
'st'+'rife'='STRIFE'

(Other definitions for strife that I've seen before include "Bitter disagreement" , "Heated discord" , "Conflict, dispute" , "Contention or contest" , "Discord and friction" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
