Vagrant gets a coach (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stage

'coach' is the definition.
(stagecoach)

'vagrant gets a' is the wordplay.
'vagrant' indicates an anagram (vagrant can mean wandering around).
'gets'+'a'='getsa'
'getsa' anagrammed gives 'STAGE'.

(Other definitions for stage that I've seen before include "Section (of journey)" , "Theatre platform; leg" , "Leg; part of theatre" , "horse-drawn vehicle" , "Gates (anag.)" .)
