Passage in the centre of Paisley (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

aisle

'passage' is the definition.
(aisle can mean a path or passageway)

'centre of paisley' is the wordplay.
'centre of' means to look at the middle letters.
The centre of 'paisley' is 'AISLE'.

'in the' is the link.

(Other definitions for aisle that I've seen before include "Passages between seating areas" , "Walkway between seats" , "Passage down the side of a church nave" , "Passageway in theatre" , "Passage between shelves in supermarket" .)
