Vessel one fills inside? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

liner

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

This clue could be a double definition.

'vessel' is the first definition.
(liner is a kind of vessel)

'one fills inside?' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how one could define the other.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for liner that I've seen before include "LP's inner sleeve" , "bin-bag?" , "may be demonstrated by make-up artist" , "that's found in the kitchen bin, perhaps" , "Craft" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
