The Astley Paradox

What is this? It’s the cream/off white parts that are sticking out from the back of this house, there’s a wire attached that doesn’t really go anywhere. Any help is appreciated

What is this? It’s on the back of someone I know’s house, they have lived there 20+ years and never been able to find out what it is. It’s the two off white/cream things sticking out from the side of the house, the white wire you see trailing down from it doesn’t really go anywhere. We’ve been trying to rack our brains and tried finding out the history of the house and nothing has come up (apart from it’s over 100 years old), tried to image reverse it and still nothing. This house is in England. I’m thinking it might be one of the old style telephone connectors but I’m not 100% so hence why I’ve come here. It’s been bugging me for the past few 10 or years tbf

What is this hole in my basement wall for? 1845 house with no chimneys on this side.

Its in front of my house, attached to a wall. Has a bell size and about 50 cm in length. Made of out metal and is painted over. Connected wire goes through a hole into house. (Germany)

I found these two small square like objects. Not sure on weight. They're both silver but the left one has a black lens.

They looks like metal cameras. They don't move and I just noticed them the other day when bringing in the trash cans. They appear to look like cameras. They don't make noise and they don't move. I saw them under my neighbors fence pointed towards my driveway

What are these brown metal bars with a circular bulge in the middle sticking up out of this fence here?

What is this white plastic thing that folds?

I got it from a career fair stand. You can open it like in the picture or compress it to make it thinner.

Vent-type structure on the front of my house that doesn’t lead anywhere

This was here when I bought my house. There’s a circular hole in the siding underneath but the main wood panel behind it is still there. Is it the remnants of an old vent of some type?

Wood, about half a pound and has a very slightly tacky residue on the back

Several tall poles with spiral "hook" in a park

The poles (about 5-6 of them) were spread around the park, not in any pattern, not along paths and not on any type of playing field. Too tall to reach the hook (at least 3m tall). A friend who lives nearby says he has never seen any plants in pots or similar things hanging from them, since that was my initial guess.

The farmer has been spreading this rock-like substance on a wheat field after harvest. 1 to 5 inches across. It has the texture of concrete, and a slightly blue tinge.
