This was another of those pipes whose source and destination was not known so to be on the safe side it was decided to route it into the manhole. Not so easy! A small square was cut out of the pre-cast concrete ring so the pipe could feed into that.

This section from the manhole to the junction with Tristford Road was re-excavated not for the drain this time but to lay a new BT conduit. this too is now ready for tarmac. But they can't concrete round the manhole today because it's Saturday (no ready-mix available on Saturdays).
