access (manhole) cover for driveway

Have a look in B&Q warehouse, they are cheaper than manholecovers.co.uk, failing that, try a local builders merchant, but *not* travis perkins, unless you intend taking out a 2nd mortgage.

Thanks Phil. There's a new B&Q in Gillingham I can try. Travis Perkins was on the list of possibles ... cheers, Neil

Get a cast iron one from a local builder's merchant. Although pressed steel ones will take a car, they do bend/flex when you sand on them. I bought one, and after I'd got it home and stood on it, took it back to swap for the lightest duty cast iron type, which isn't much more expensive but doesn't flex when you stand on it (and takes much more weight, although that probably doesn't matter for you). You may need to buy a pair of lifting handles at the same time, but they're dirt cheap.
