# an enclosure or barrier of upright stakes, sometimes connected by wires, ropes or horizontal beams, often used as a fence around animals e.g. cattle, horses. Also used as crowd control.

# a line of upright stakes # a prison (especially in North America) # to stockade (transitive verb). To fortify with a stockade. e.g. "We had to stockade our yard to prevent the wild goats from eating our vegetables."

'Alternative' meaning: A fizzy drink made from meat-flavored cubes or chicken bones.

The word 'stockade' is from the word 'stake', meaning an upright post, pole or pale.
