In the event of uprising, live somewhere warm (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fireside

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'uprising live somewhere warm' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'in the event' is the wordplay.
'in the' becomes 'fire' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'event' becomes 'side' (side is a kind of event).
'fire'+'side'='FIRESIDE'

'of' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for fireside that I've seen before include "Inglenook" , "somewhere cosy" , "Warm domestic area" , "Warm part of room" , "Comfy place for chair" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
