Eased off about scheme for promenade (9)
I believe the answer is:
esplanade
'promenade' is the definition.
(esplanade is a kind of promenade)
'eased off about scheme' is the wordplay.
'off' indicates anagramming the letters.
'about' indicates putting letters inside.
'scheme' becomes 'plan' (I've seen this before).
'eased' with letters rearranged gives 'esade'.
'esade' enclosing 'plan' is 'ESPLANADE'.
'for' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for esplanade that I've seen before include "Seaside road" , "walk by sea" , "Seaside walkway" , "Seafront walkway" , "A leap ends (anag) - seaside feature" .)
