Clear the cellar (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

vault

I believe this is a double definition.

'clear' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

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

'the' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for vault that I've seen before include "bound?" , "Underground chamber - jump!" , "Crypt; leap" , "Leap - wine or money chamber?" , "Strongroom or burial chamber" .)

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