It doesn't seem like a logical place for a flagpole or clothesline tree.
Fuzz's guess of something to do with a foundational draining system seems to make sense, the size of the hole doesn't make sense to me. It's definitely big enough for a 3-5 year old kid to fall into. I said 5" x 5" earlier, but I am looking at a ruler right now and it seems too small. It might be closer to 7-8" x 7-8". I'll confirm what's going on with pics and use a measuring tape to confirm the size of this thing.
Assuming the this hole does have to do with drainage, is filling it with stuff a bad idea? Should I be trying to look into putting something else in there that allows for air flow that I can remove when needed? The reason I was thinking of dropping a full on 8' post into the hole is so that I could remove the post if needed while making it far less likely a kid could fall inside.
