What are they trying to catch? Brown trout?
What's going on there? (I am a nosy bastard, yes.)
That is an utter bodge done by a clueless numpty, as also demonstrated by the inadequate fall of the two lateral pipes above it.
the Grey Y-connector is upside down !.
Send these photos to your local BCO. Give him something to do.
Original pipe blocked so divert sewage to an alternative drain?
With a filter to catch the jobbies?
It really is very bizarre.

A filter than looks a bit like the top of a swing-top kitchen bin hacked-off and munged into place.
This is a foul drain, so needs to be completely sealed apart from the vent pipe 300mm? above an opening window. Maybe this is home-brew AAV because there is no vent pipe ? Without seeing the whole stack it is difficult to say.
I am also wondering if the two pipes going into the pavement are foul drain and surface water respectively. If so whoever did this needs a bit of education.
Looking from farther back it appears that it's just the gutters and drainpipes feeding into it.
A down-pipe splitting into two like that still doesn?t make any sense though?
Tim
I wonder, because that's all i've got, is that there might be something in the Y piece sending leaves and such into the hopper on the right?
