Purpose, intention (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

aim

I believe this is a double definition.

'purpose' is the first definition.
(synonyms)

'intention' is the second definition.
(synonyms)

(Other definitions for aim that I've seen before include "Draw a bead on" , "Ambition or goal" , "Point towards a target, or have ambition" , "This is mean" , "road?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
