Church caretaker (6)

Ross

I think it could be either:

sexton

verger

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

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for sexton that I've seen before include "church assistant" , "They went and told the -, and / The - tolled the bell (Thomas Hood)" , "Church functionary" , "Officer of the church on the Irish rugby team?" , "Person who tends a church and churchyard" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent, The Telegraph and The Times.
