Colour; awning (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

shade

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'colour' is the first definition.
(shade is a kind of colour)

'awning' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for shade that I've seen before include "blind" , "See 15" , "Colour; protection from sun" , "Slight colour difference" , "Quality of colour" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
