Henhouse feature (5)
I believe the answer is:
roost
'henhouse feature' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for roost that I've seen before include "Henhouse" , "Bat's resting place" , "Glowing with joy" , "Perch where bird sleeps" , "Settle down (on a branch?)" .)
