Could that be the beacon ERELAS? Ere for before, plus (lass minus S).

I was really struggling to find a synonym for highlight that would work - thought the straight clue was the girl or possibly a way (like a mountain pass), although "loses" suggested way was part of the cryptic component. Didn't realise the beacons had names before I went looking for possible female names starting with "Ere."
It could and indeed is.... I do try to keep to the convention of havingbthe straight part at one end though 7t can be a struggle.
