Small shed is inaccessible (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

shut

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

'inaccessible' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives. Perhaps you can see a link between them that I can't see?

'small shed' is the wordplay.
'small' becomes 's' (abbreviation - e.g. clothes size).
'shed' becomes 'hut' (I've seen this before).
's'+'hut'='SHUT'

'is' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for shut that I've seen before include "not accepting visitors" , "Push to" , "Slam" , "Draw to" , "See 19" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
