What is the button looking thing halfway down the left hand seatstay on some bikes? Mine has it and I've seen it on some others, I'm guessing it has a purpose?

Only on one seatstay? And what sort of bike?
My hybrid has little rubber plugs in the holes that lower models use for rim brakes; my roadie has little holes for mounting mudguards.Scott Sportster P45 2008 | Cannondale CAAD8 Tiagra 20120 -

If it had been on the right... and a bit further down, I might have guessed a chain hanger (found on some older alloy frames... used to hold the chain out of the way during real wheel removal/installation)...0 -
