Store for bran mixture (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

barn

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

'store' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?

'bran mixture' is the wordplay.
'mixture' indicates an anagram.
'bran' anagrammed gives 'BARN'.

'for' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for barn that I've seen before include "stable" , "Large shed" , "Large outhouse" , "Type of dance or owl" , "Building for farm animals" .)
