Pay for bench (6)
I believe the answer is:
settle
This clue is a double definition.
'pay for' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)
'bench' is the second definition.
(I know that settle is a type of bench)
(Other definitions for settle that I've seen before include "Resolve; land" , "Fall on to floor" , "Decide - colonise" , "place to sit" , "somewhere in North Yorkshire" .)
