Disconcerted, ashamed (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

abashed

This clue is a double definition.

'disconcerted' is the first definition.
(abashing is a kind of disconcerting)

'ashamed' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for abashed that I've seen before include "Embarrassed or disconcerted" , "Disturbed" , "Confounded" , "Embarrassed or ashamed" , "Shamefaced" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
