Rank's counterpart, on a chessboard (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

file

(Other definitions for file that I've seen before include "Smoothing tool; organised data" , "Folder; rasp" , "Three Dn and this can indicate ordinary people" , "Tool to hold documents" , "Cutting tool or line of people" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
