Seat in church where one keeps an animal? (5)
I believe the answer is:
stall
This clue is a double definition.
'seat in church' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)
'where one keeps an animal?' is the second definition.
(stall is a part of a stable)
(Other definitions for stall that I've seen before include "outlet at a fair" , "facility for trade" , "Put off" , "Seat - prevaricate" , "Be evasive" .)
