Lieu (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stead

'lieu' is the definition.
(I know that lieu can be written as stead)

This is the entire clue.

(Another definition for stead that I've seen is " Place, function or role of another".)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press, the King Feature Syndicate and The New York Times.
