Raiment worn in tower (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

minaret

'tower' is the definition.
(I know that minaret is a type of tower)

'raiment worn' is the wordplay.
'worn' indicates anagramming the letters (worn can mean damaged).
'raiment' anagrammed gives 'MINARET'.

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for minaret that I've seen before include "Tower attached to mosque" , "Mosque turret" , "religious tower" , "Building" , "Tower from which muezzin calls Muslims to prayer" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
