Enclosed area; chemical (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

compound

(Other definitions for compound that I've seen before include "Make worse; property enclosure" , "In this fracture, bone has pierced the skin" , "Combination of elements - make worse - fenced-in area" , "Chemical substance; enclosed space" , "Fenced area; chemical substance" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
