Water from a home-made well (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dew

'water' is the definition.
(dew is a kind of water)

'from a home-made well' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates a hidden word.
'DEW' can be found hidden inside 'home made well'.

(Other definitions for dew that I've seen before include "The damp of early morning" , "Wed in morning moisture" , "Small drops of moisture" , "Moisture deposited overnight" , "Night-time condensation" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
