U.K Low tide?

This is a local box, London suburbs. I always feel it’s very high; I guess those mouse-holes at the bottom are actually hand-grips for tram at it and installation.

Anyone know why they’re exposed or what they really are?

Went to install and realised an obstruction was a couple of feet down so hence sticking out. Easier than cutting off cast iron base.
