Where things are in hock (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pawnshop

'where things are in hock' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for pawnshop that I've seen before include "uncle's establishment" , "Premises for loans against personal property" , "Establishment for loans against personal property" , "Moneylender's premises" , "Where money may be borrowed by depositing personal goods as security" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
