We had something like that a long time ago. It was bare copper, I think there were two strands wound together and, it came from the old (1950) telephone junction box to somewhere outside. I always presumed that it was an earth.
On some houses the earthing for the electric was not included in the cabling but run as a separate , often bare, wire.
Mostly these earthing wires were retro fitted when 2 pin sockets were replaced by three pin sockets when the hazards of un-earthed metal electrical appliances became known.
Yeah, it does; or are you talking about what might be a wire on the ground, that could be going to the nearby socket. If you took that back off, you might see it's a spur.
