Underground river, or possibly one arch (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

acheron

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'underground river' is the definition.
'acheron' can be an answer for 'river' (I've seen this before). I am unsure of the 'underground' bit.

'possibly one arch' is the wordplay.
'possibly' indicates anagramming the letters.
'one'+'arch'='onearch'
'onearch' anagrammed gives 'ACHERON'.

'or' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for acheron that I've seen before include "one classical route to underworld" , "A river of Hades" .)
