Secular place (3)
I believe the answer is:
lay
This clue is a double definition.
'secular' is the first definition.
(I know this)
'place' is the second definition.
(laying is a kind of placing)
(Other definitions for lay that I've seen before include "Non-professional - ballad" , "in which hens regularly produce eggs?" , "Put down (in position)" , "Song-ballad" , "Put down; lyric" .)
