Troops guarding a fort (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

garrison

(Other definitions for garrison that I've seen before include "Troops maintaining a fortified place" , "Military fortress" , "army base?" , "HQ" , "An armed force - or its location" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
