Thick mud (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mire

'thick mud' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for mire that I've seen before include "Deep soft mud" , "Bog down in swamp" , "Emir found in mud" , "Swampy ground" , "(Stretch of) clinging mud" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday and the Penny Press.
