Looks like a test point. These are pads, typically only on the surface of the board, but certainly not always, that are contacted with a probe during automated testing. Judging from the fact that there is no hole underneath it, this one is only on the board surface. There is probably no reason to worry about it unless the board is going to be tested automatically again.
