Disturbed dust on a floor (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

astound

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

'disturbed dust on a' is the wordplay.
'disturbed' is an anagram indicator (the order of letters is disturbed).
'dust'+'on'+'a'='dustona'
'dustona' is an anagram of 'ASTOUND'.

(Other definitions for astound that I've seen before include "Startle" , "Stupefy" , "Bewilder" , "Bowl over" , "Flabbergast" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
