Hi Earl,

looks like its sole purpose is to shorten the life span of the inhabitants.

Recommend a level II chimney evaluation by a licensed sweep

Regards

This looks like it was a place to clean out soot from the chimney that was sealed shut. Sealing it would prevent birds and squirrels from getting into the house. I’ve found many dehydrated animals in vents.
