It makes a clown taller (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stilt

(Other definitions for stilt that I've seen before include "Walking pole; wader" , "Stout pole with a foot rest -- wading bird" , "Long-legged bird" , "laboured and unnatural in the past" , "Flier" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal.
