Ship's dividing wall (8)

I believe the answer is:

bulkhead

(Other definitions for bulkhead that I've seen before include "Upright partition in ship or aircraft" , "Separator in ship" , "Separating wall in ship" , "Interior partition in a ship or aircraft" , "piece of partitioning" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
