Courtroom enclosure for person(s) on trial (4)

I believe the answer is:

dock

(Other definitions for dock that I've seen before include "Use this for nettle stings" , "Court enclosure; plant" , "Berthing area; cut" , "weed bit of station > where Richard Roe stood" , "Quay" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
