Chief structure (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

arch

This clue is a double definition.

'chief' is the first definition.
(synonyms)

'structure' is the second definition.
(I know that arch is a type of skeletal structure)

(Other definitions for arch that I've seen before include "Chief - part of foot" , "Structural curve" , "Mischievous - curve" , "Supporting structure" , "part of fingerprint" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
