I wonder if that could be a bracket off of some sort of hay unloader, similar to the one shown, only not so elaborate?

I think Steif has the answer, clothesline support.

It is the botton part of a mop assembly. The tightner and handle is missing.

Maybe I'm reaching here but could it be part of an old treadle sewing machine?
