alright peeps,
got a question for you all - there i was, digging a hole and nice and shallow and i hit a steel pipe of about 1.5 ro 1.75" diameter, in good condition wrapped in a thin coat of what seems like paper soaked bitumen. it flakes off and i've got nice shiny steel where i've been chopping at it. it's now wrapped in denso and has been reburied.
but what was it?
the situation is that a couple of houses up the hill have their sewerage run down shallow through this garden to the highway below, now i'm wondering if this pipe could be water, gas or electric feeding these houses. i don't see why it should as they face onto a road themselves.
anyone recognise the description?
i'll try asking this in plumbing if you're all shaking your heads
