I flog hot items from a wooden enclosure, perhaps (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fence

This clue is a double definition.

'i flog hot items' is the first definition.
(a fence trades in stolen or 'hot' items)

'a wooden enclosure perhaps' is the second definition.
(as in a wooden fence)

'from' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for fence that I've seen before include "Barrier - engage in swordplay" , "railings" , "Thief's dealer" , "Guard" , "Obstacle to clear, in steeple-chasing" .)
