That chap making a chimney piece (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

him

'that chap' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'making a chimney piece' is the wordplay.
'piece' indicates a hidden word.
'HIM' is hidden in the letters of 'making chimney'.

(Other definitions for him that I've seen before include "Objective male pronoun" , "Proper character" , "That man" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
