Trouble to look around the street (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pester

'trouble' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'look around the street' is the wordplay.
'look' becomes 'peer' (peering is a kind of looking**).
'around' indicates putting letters inside.
'the street' becomes 'st'.
'peer' going around 'st' is 'PESTER'.

'to' is the link.

(Other definitions for pester that I've seen before include "Harass" , "Trouble, annoy" , "Be a nuisance, annoy with requests" , "Annoy with persistent requests" , "Nag, badger" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
