Memorial is not cheap, unfortunately (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cenotaph

'memorial' is the definition.
(cenotaph is a kind of memorial)

'not cheap unfortunately' is the wordplay.
'unfortunately' is an anagram indicator.
'not'+'cheap'='notcheap'
'notcheap' is an anagram of 'CENOTAPH'.

'is' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for cenotaph that I've seen before include "Monument to the war dead" , "Monument honouring the fallen" , "construction in Whitehall" , "War memorial" , "Monument honouring persons buried elsewhere" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
