Award, honour (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

accolade

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">I believe this clue is a double definition.<br/ ><br/ >'<span class="explanation-format__original">award</span>' is the first definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(synonyms)</span><br/ ><br/ >'<span class="explanation-format__original">honour</span>' is the second definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(synonyms)</span><br/ ><br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for accolade that I've seen before include "Praise, acclaim" , "Ceremonial tap of sword on shoulder when conferring knighthood" , "Honour, high award" , "Tribute expressing great approval" , "Praise, or touch on shoulder to confer knighthood" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
