Washing receptacle (7)

I believe the answer is:

bathtub

(Other definitions for bathtub that I've seen before include "Where to soak (mainly US)" , "Vessel in which one washes oneself" , "Vessel for ablutions" , "Large container for washing" , "place to immerse the body" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
