Managed to get under the floor beneath the stairs and found the red/black wires dangling :) The end of the smaller pipe is there too which is cut off not long after the junction box in pic, so its not going to anywhere either. Also the 2 main newer cables going through the wall that ties in with...

Yeah that's about right on the dimensions. Outside of the pipe diameter was about 24mm on the tape measure.

Just tried the wires that are up on the wall junction and they are the same, no movement. Yes, there's no access where the pipe drops down towards the current consumer unit below. Its behind a wall on the staircase, could possibly lift the carpet under the stairs and see if the floor can come up...

So this is where the pipe turns down through the floor/ceiling. Funnily enough there's another slightly smaller pipe that comes up at the same point with a few cut off wires hanging out, haven't seen any of this smaller pipe before. Anyway, I found another junction about 6 ft from the end of the...

There's no obvious sign of the end of it downstairs anywhere. Think its behind the wall by the staircase from what I can tell. I'll try to have a closer look tomorrow at where it started to head downwards (involved a bit of commando crawling over joists and it's too late on a Saturday night to...

So I managed to trace the conduit back towards the middle of the house, it then dives down through the floor just about right above where the current fuse box sits downstairs. Would it even be possible to have it connected to the current box? This box was installed only a few years ago when the...

OK I see, makes a bit of sense even to me now :) It must be dead on the inside then I assume, safe to chop out? The main fuse box for the house is downstairs by the front door and the supply cable for it comes out of the floor.

So this is where it exists through the brick in the loft space and then where it looks to come out externally. Seems awful high up to have been a outside light etc?? Cheers

Will try to get some more pics :)

Thanks for the quick reply folks, good news I think! :) I should be able to get to the top of it via the roof space for a closer look. I daren't go near it once I realise there was wiring inside, but hopefully long dead as you say. The other end I can possibly track through the house but not...

Hi All, I think this is old electrical wiring, can anyone confirm? Found behind a wall & floor while redoing an upstairs shower room. It seems to go up the wall to almost the roof line then through the brick work to outside then stops. The other end goes down and through a few joists by way of...
