Not sure what the pipe is for. Presumably a stench pipe, a vent for an underground sewer pipe. The steel mesh is I guess an attempt to stop the hollow ash tree from being used as a rubbish bin. This has not been successful and the old tree has been subject to fires lit in its trunk. But it survives but I suppose it'll now have to fight ash die back disease.
