Floor or table protector (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mat

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'floor' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'table protector' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

(Other definitions for mat that I've seen before include "Foot-wiper on which welcome may be kept" , "Tangle" , "Dull, rug" , "Thick flat pad on the floor" , "Small protective floor-covering" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
