We have a soil pipe running down the outside of the house, which goes underground then turns horizontal, and runs towards the main sewer. A few feet from the soil pipe is a branch which leaves the underground pipe at 45 degrees, and pokes out of the garden about 10 or 12 inches. Completely open. I have assumed it to be a rodding point with the push on cap long gone, so was planning to buy a replacement. However, could it be a vent point, in which case blocking it may cause problems? How would I know?
