Replacing a lead water supply (can I spur off before internal stop tap)

[Dale]

I've run mdpe water pipe across front of property to an internal plant room,  in one complete length.  But wanting to tee off to fit an outside tap before the internal stop tap.

Question: can I tee into the supply pipe and spur off before the internal stop tap.  Or does the supply pipe have to run in to the property in an uninterrupted length?

 

Thank you

I don’t know of anything saying you can’t tee off before the main property …unless you were going before a meter.

Why not, I have two outside taps coming off before it enters the house.

I did that at our last new build and it wasn't a problem.
