Small towns (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

villages

'small towns' is the definition.
('village' can be a synonym of 'small town')

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for villages that I've seen before include "They're smaller than towns" , "Rural communities" , "Rural settlements" , "Settlements smaller than a town" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
