What the Helen of Troy is This

What the Helen of Troy is This?

We’ve looked at coal doors before but I don’t think that’s what this is. This is really small. You can see it’s the width is the size of one brick. Way too small for a shovel. It’s on the outside of a chimney. But it can’t be too clean out a chimney, right? Again because of the size plus it seem like it’d be easier from the inside. Any guesses?
