Crossword Genius

Concern, in Bury, set for redevelopment (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

interest

'concern' is the definition.
('interest' can be a synonym of 'concern')

'bury set for redevelopment' is the wordplay.
'bury' becomes 'inter' (I've seen this before).
'for redevelopment' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen this in other clues).
'set' anagrammed gives 'est'.
'inter'+'est'='INTEREST'

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for interest that I've seen before include "Sum paid on a loan" , "Stake; concern deeply" , "Money earned by money in deposit account" , "something that is enjoyable" , "Profit" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
