Screen off in church (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

censer

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'church' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see a link between them that I can't see?

'screen off' is the wordplay.
'off' indicates an anagram.
'screen' anagrammed gives 'CENSER'.

'in' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for censer that I've seen before include "may be seen in church" , "Container in which incense is burned" , "Thurible" , "Container in which incense is burnt" , "may be used in church" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent and The Globe and Mail.
