+1, in wikipedia it's also called 'mounting block', see 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mounting_block.

But isn't it too primitive to be an amenity? What about 
animal=mounting_block? We have animal=horse_walker.

I assume only stationary (fixed, heavy) mountoing blocks should be 
tagged. Many other objects (e.g. old tractor tires) can be used to mount 
a horse and could otherwise be tagged as a mounting block. AFAIK most 
mounting blocks/steps used in riding centres are light and movable and 
therefore not relevant here.
