Help Identify Some Farmland Iron Please

[jamest64]

Hello treasurenet Team,
So, I could use some help figuring out what this Iron thing is. Found it in the middle of a former farm field about 100 yards from the farmhouse built in 1849. Thanks for your input in advance. I have a clue what it might be, but will refer to you experts...thanks for looking.View attachment Venner Farm Junk July 2021.pdf

How about posting the photo? Terry is braver than me....I'm leery of click bait.

Hello Terry, that seems possible too. It is a fairly small step if that's the case!
