Gatepost socket. This is for a "clapping" post, as it is the smaller size. The "hinge" post would be about 3 inches wider. The little socket at the base is where the adjacent strainer post would have fitted. Note how the "fin" on this side has been deliberately omitted to allow the strainer post to be placed close to the gatepost. The nearest fin on the right has been broken off.
