stokes main furnaces at last for hosts?

I have SCO-ES

Are they correct? I can't spot a mistake and can't see a word to fit.

(Last clue incidentally; otherwise completed)

Thanks

Thanks. I assumed it was scores but even with the helpful S-CORE-S I still have a blind spot. Presume main is CORE but which S is referred to?
The first s is the abbreviation for "stokes" the CGS unit of kinematic viscosity, although I think st is in some dictionaries.
Then the other s of course is the last letter of "furnaces"

Thank you very much. I should have looked up Stokes but never thought to do so.
People might be interested to know that your question was included in the Spectator crossword No 2534 last Thursday!
