Halt production of something wooden (4)
I believe the answer is:
lath
'something wooden' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'halt production' is the wordplay.
'production' indicates anagramming the letters.
'halt' with letters rearranged gives 'LATH'.
'of' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for lath that I've seen before include "Plaster-supporting wood strip" , "Wooden strip for plaster" , "Strip of wood used as a base for plastering" , "Narrow strip of wood used as backing for plasterwork" , "Thin strip of wood used in plastering" .)
