Crossword Genius

A share in the plot (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

allotment

This clue is a double definition.

'a share' is the first definition.
(allotment is a kind of share)

'the plot' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for allotment that I've seen before include "Where vegetables may be produced" , "Share - small piece of land rented for cultivation" , "Plot of public land rented to an individual for gardening" , "cultivated area" , "Rented piece of ground" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph and The Globe and Mail.
