Hi mick . I have used them manholes on many occasions . Ideal for laying fifty mm or less thick slabs . We used to just infill with one piece of yorkstone . As it was street paving slabs were 63mm thick . We used to get a couple of packs of 50mm York delivered to go in the trays . If we ran out we had to undercut the 63mm slabs . Nightmare. One other problem we had was we cut templates to fit the tray to make it easier for measuring only problem was the v bit of the tray where you put manhole key in is slightly different . Individual measuring on each one .
