Former place of execution (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

scaffold

(Other definitions for scaffold that I've seen before include "Framework of poles and planks on construction site" , "Platform on which criminals were once hung" , "Platform refreshment" , "place to hang" , "Place of execution" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
