Thought permission renewed (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

impression

'thought' is the definition.
(I know that impression is a type of thought)

'permission renewed' is the wordplay.
'renewed' indicates anagramming the letters.
'permission' is an anagram of 'IMPRESSION'.

(Other definitions for impression that I've seen before include "opinion" , "Mark" , "Imitation (of a person)" , "take-off" , "Feeling; print" .)

I've seen this clue in The Everyman puzzle in The Observer.
