Colour of restored building: timeless (4-3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rose-red

'colour' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

I don't understand the rest of the clue.

(Other definitions for rose-red that I've seen before include "Colour (of Burgon's city)" , "Coloured like a flower" , "A -- city, half as old as time" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
