Many thanks, @ProDave and @saveasteading Went a number of times to see if neighbours are in, but could not find them. The cover is on their driveway. That's a lot of money (10k to 20k) to move a simple/shallow pipe (as Saveasteading mentioned) Will check with neighbors again. Can I ask another question, the searches are back and in the searches it says that the overall flooding risk is low-moderate but Ground water is moderate-high. Is this an issue? When I checked on the government website, it says "Flooding from groundwater is unlikely in this area." So very confused with this. Any ideas, please? Also, is there any way to check wind and solar farms that are planned closer to the property? Many thanks,

Many thanks for your replies. @Mr Punter: So there is no way I can build right from the front boundary of the house front? I know porch might be difficult/impossible to build? @ProDave: I could not see any manhole and/or inspection chamber at the front of the property (it is not on the side (the area that goes to the garage), but will check on the front garden tomorrow). What I am gathering from the depth (sorry for the naive question), e.g. if it is too deep or a little deep, what information that would give me? Many thanks,

Dear All, Planning to buy a property but from searches, I found that there is a public Foul Sewer closer to the property (please see below image). Do you think it is an issue? Does that mean we wont be able to extend on the side of the property (within 3 m of the sewer pipe) due to the water company owing this and need to get their approval? and if they grant the permission, will that be too costly to move the pipe, etc? Many thanks
