Lighter found in shed (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

spill

I believe this is a double definition.

'lighter' is the first definition.
(strip of wood for lighting a candle)

'shed' is the second definition.
(I know that shed can be written as spill)

'found in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for spill that I've seen before include "Waste from container" , "Upset; brim over" , "Waste (liquid)" , "Thin piece of wood or rolled paper to light a fire" , "Slop; a lighter" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
