Still quite likely to be a boot scraper - there are lots of pics of them online just like your original pic, with the metal scraper part at the front of a stone hole. The pic you've just posted looks like it's merely missing the metal bit

Google image search (not always accurate!) also suggests it's a boot scraper.
It also reminded me that the French word is décrottoir...literally de-pooper

Does the hole actually go anywhere? Otherwise looks very much like a boot scraper so you don't bring crud inside

It's a sure sign that autumn is upon us when the Acer is almost glowing. The leaves will all be gone within 2 weeks

Isn't this such a lovely thread.
I can't help thinking that owl physio comes with significant risk / peril 😳🫣

A delightful thread for a Sunday morning #wildlife #owls.
Fantastic work @folklorewales.com

Six weeks ago, I picked up a year-old tawny owl with a broken leg off the main road near our home and dropped him off at our nearest vet.

After a few days, I received one of the most bizarre phone calls I’ve ever had, asking “So when are you coming to pick up your owl?” 🧵

But Johnson cleared out the honest, principled and capable tories as soon as he became leader so he could do what he wanted, which is why the party is such an utter shambles now.
I can't see those that he kicked out returning.

Indeed. You'd hope that Sarah should be enough of a clue for most people though

They could still have used Sarah Mullally's name, rather than "woman", in the headline. Lazy, sexist journalism. All the worse for it being their second attempt
