I moved to England from Hong Kong recently. I found that it is common to see these holes (tiny doorway arch looking thing) in front of houses. What are they?

It’s for scraping the mud off the bottoms of your shoes!
Yeah it's for when you didn't have room for a mud room. Scrape that shit right off!
What happens when it gets full of mud
You clean it. Or wait for the rain to clean it.
Or have your boy Geoffrey scrub it out good and proper.
Are we still talking about boot scrapers?
