Stone pillar with a pyramidal top (7)

I believe the answer is:

obelisk

(Other definitions for obelisk that I've seen before include "Tapering square pillar" , "Kind of monument, tall sloping pillar" , "Square stone column that tapers" , "Tapering, rectangular stone column" , "Ancient Egyptian monument" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
