Hi all,

I've found this in he middle of my lawn, half way between the garage and the house. I'm guessing its a roding eye, but there was no cover/cap for it.
The pipe is blue, so I'm guessing its something to do with drainage.

It doesnt smell and isn't causing any issues, can I fill it in with mud, grass over, etc. or should I buy a cover (and where can I get one from!)

Thanks
Marv

Thanks, I'll give it a clean out this weekend to see if I can find any hidden treasures :)

Its blue, so I thought it has something to do with water? :scratch:

What sort of diameter are we talking of?

Suspect its a piece of MDPE thats been sunk into the ground for a clothes dryer to stand up in. Or thats my guess at least.
