Stock brought in here to be taken out? (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

abattoir

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

'stock' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'brought in here to be taken out?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'to' is found in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for abattoir that I've seen before include "Make smile for camera" , "stunning location" , "Building used for butchery" , "it makes a killing" , "Damage (metal) by chemical action" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
