Georgian city dull -- it'll probably get wet underfoot (4,3)

I believe the answer is:

bath mat

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

'it'll probably get wet underfoot' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'georgian city dull' is the wordplay.
'georgian city' becomes 'bath' (I've seen this before).
'dull' becomes 'mat' (mat as opposed to glossy).
'bath'+'mat'='BATH-MAT'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for bath mat that I've seen before include "One may stand on it wet" , "Rug alongside washing facility" , "It keeps moisture off the floor" , "One may be floored" , "It takes wet feet" .)
