Payment for subsidence (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

settlement

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'payment' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

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

'for' is the link.

(Other definitions for settlement that I've seen before include "Small outpost of families" , "Hamlet - conclusion" , "local community" , "Agreement ending a dispute" , "Colonial outpost" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
