Can you get flexible gutter pipes/underground pipes?

Take a peek at

eden coughed up some electrons that declared:

Not seen such a thing. Usually you have to fiddle about with 100 (or 82mm) and use either a universal angle joint (adjustable) or random other angles until you get where you are going. 110mm will allow some curvature over a long length, but not a lot.

Bury a bit of land drainage pipe?

You have a garden.

=========================================

Could you run a section of pipe horizontally along the wall of the house from the bottom of the downpipe to a more conveniently located discharge shoe?

You might need to add a rodding point but that shouldn't be difficult.

Because it's old? because its on a farm? I dont know.... lots of victorian terrace houses seem to be like this, pipes drain onto pavements..

"You have a garden. "

eh?

Unfortunately there's a door in the way. was going to run it down over porch roof into porch gutter but have been told will turn porch roof green.

Just seen something called 'WavinCoil'..... would that be suitable???

==========================================

I've just googled for your suggestion.

You might be on to something but not 'WavinCoil' which appears to be perforated to collect water. Have a look at this page if you haven't already done so:

'Ultrarib' seems to be the best one but it would be worth a phone call to confirm.

The two went together - you have a garden, ergo you have somewhere a soakaway could be placed, making your posting contradictory (I think he was trying to say :o) ). Circumlocution rules.

Yes but........ I've read that a soakaway has to be at least 5m from house. Garden is 3.5m long. Outside garden is farmer's track, main access in use night and day owned by him - I cant dig that up so no place for soakaway. Ipso facto. :)

You said you had nowhere to put a soakaway but then said you had a garden. Where do you think soakaways normally go?

Not next to the house foundations, that's for sure.

The OP said later his garden is 3.5m long. I don't know the recommended distance but I thought a few metres away was wise and that's cutting it fine.
