Insurance payment for subsidence (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

settlement

This clue is a double definition.

'insurance payment' is the first definition.

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

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for settlement that I've seen before include "Agreement ending a dispute" , "local community" , "New community" , "Outpost; agreement" , "charge paid off with this" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
