Place with support for couch (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

settee

'couch' is the definition.
(settee is a kind of couch)

'place with support' is the wordplay.
'place' becomes 'set' (setting is a kind of placing).
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'support' becomes 'tee' (tee is a kind of support).
'set'+'tee'='SETTEE'

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for settee that I've seen before include "chair" , "solver, might you say?" , "Intended recipient of my work, so to speak" , "Get a seat" , "Item of furniture" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
