Comments:

Apparently this is a coalhole
Coal holes: These are covers from the period when the houses were heated with coal, into which the coal bags were poured, so that the coals did not have to enter the houses.
These lids were used in the 19th and early 20th centuries.

The lid is almost identical to another lid made by the same manufacturer, and differs only in the text written on the outer ring
