Part of a staircase (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

riser

'part of a staircase' is the definition.
(I know that riser is part of stair)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for riser that I've seen before include "One on the way up" , "Vertical piece between treads of staircase" , "I get up" , "One getting up" , "Upright piece between steps" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
