Hi all this is my first post so please be kind.
The property is a 1937 built house. I have a brick built manhole aprox 3 foot deep with a 4" private drain running across the width of the garden.
Running parallel to this drain is what appears to be an 8" clay pipe ecased in concrete. The top of this pipe is about 2 foot below the surface. My question is, what would this 8" pipe be?
I asked Thames water if it was their sewer but they said it wasnt on their map.
The 4" drain/manhole picks up soil and grey water from my house, the houses upstream and at least 1 house down stream.
Thanks in advance
