Looks like a Fire Call Box post? Not sure, hopefully someone will know exactly what it is!

I can only imagine what this firebox would look, in restored condition.

Very nice piece. Thanks for sharing!

They are all over Boston, Plymouth and Falmouth on Cape Cod. There is one in front of the city fire department in Falmouth with a cast iron mast and a red globe on top. Never understood that placement but they are great to see still being used? Paul www.severngaspumps.com
