Passage from a small island (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

aisle

'passage' is the definition.
(aisle is a kind of passage)

'a small island' is the wordplay.
'small island' becomes 'isle' (I've seen this before**).
'a'+'isle'='AISLE'

'from' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for aisle that I've seen before include "Division of the nave in church" , "Passageway between seating areas" , "Part of a church" , "Way between seating areas" , "channel" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail and The Telegraph.
