The ankle-bone (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

talus

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'the ankle' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'bone' is the second definition.
(I know that talus is a type of bone)

(Other definitions for talus that I've seen before include "Ankle-bone" , "Ankle bone" , "Yarns" , "Foot's part" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
