Regular figure, old-fashioned type (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

square

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'regular figure' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'old-fashioned type' is the second definition.
(square can mean a boringly conventional person)

(Other definitions for square that I've seen before include "New York Times, for example" , "Eg, 4, 49 or 121" , "See 19" , "Sixteen, maybe" , "Old fogey" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
