Wound crust (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

scab

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

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for scab that I've seen before include "Dried crust on wound" , "Dried crust on sore" , "Crusted sore on cut or wound" , "Derogatory term for a strike-breaker" , "He's not out" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun and The Times.
