Row or rank (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tier

This clue is a double definition.

'row' is the first definition.
(a tier is a row of things)

'rank' is the second definition.
(I know that tier is a type of rank)

(Other definitions for tier that I've seen before include "Row in theatre" , "Bank - row" , "Wedding cake layer" , "Level of a structure" , "One who secures" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Mail and The Mirror.
