I believe the answer is:

yard

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

This clue might be a double definition.

'an odd number of feet' is the first definition.
'yard' can be an answer for 'feet' (I have seen 'several feet' mean 'yard' so perhaps 'feet' could also mean 'yard'). I'm not certain of the 'an odd number of' bit.

'enclosure' is the second definition.
(I know that yard is a type of enclosure)

'in the' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for yard that I've seen before include "several feet" , "Dray (anag.)" , "area behind the house" , "Get the measure" , "Measure - enclosed space" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
