Wood from Kashmir (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ash

'wood' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'from kashmir' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates a hidden word.
'ASH' can be found hidden inside 'kashmir'.

(Other definitions for ash that I've seen before include "Fire's remains" , "at village near Whitchurch in Shropshire" , "Hardwood" , "deposit" , "remains after forest fire?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
