Castle defenses (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

moats

'castle defenses' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for moats that I've seen before include "Water-filled ditches as fortifications" , "Ditches around castles" , "Castle ditches" , "what isolate castles" , "Trenches around castles" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press.
