Have you ever thought that it may be the exit from an ancient underground tunnel
It's a bit vertical for that , they usually have staircases or ladders
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

One thing I have thought of doing is to rig up an A frame and winch out the metal pipe.
Whatever I do this pipe must be removed or cut off, but if I could pull it out, possibly complete with pump,
I would know how deep it is should I decide to dig it out.
The soil at the bottom is very soft, almost like compost, so maybe garden waste has been thrown in at
some point in the distant past.
I now know what vivid imaginations some of you have.

Made a pipe bending former today for the front mudguard stays.

all that crap in your garage you've got to get rid of? All that rubble from the extension you had to get rid of? Any and all building waste
from diy over the next twenty years? You now have a big old hole to chuck it down, just fill over with mud once it's full.

An Update
Hi All
I thought I'd update this thread with a progress pic.
First of all, I'm no bricklayer, but I know a man that is.
I'm thinking of a wrought iron grill with a disc of glass on top.
We're looking forward to the summer evenings, a couple of reclining chairs, and a glass or two of cool beer balanced on the edge.

Happy Christmas

I found a hole in my garden at my old house, so I dug it out, and it turned out to be the original brick septic tank for the house. All the neighbours
had one as well.
It was filled in when they connected the house to the mains sewers in the 1950's.
I thought I might have found a well... but well... it wasnt
Pic looks good... nice feature in the garden.

1. The point of a journey is not to arrive.
2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.
