Remains of a fire (5)

I believe the answer is:

ashes

(Other definitions for ashes that I've seen before include "Remains from a cremation" , "sporting trophy" , "Remains of anything burnt" , "Eng./Aus. cricket trophy" , "Former Wimbledon champion's" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun, The Guardian, the Sydney Morning Herald, The Mirror, the Family Time and The Telegraph.
