I want to install an underground stopcock in a shaft, like a mini- manhole, depth around 750mm. Where can I purchase such a thing ? Simon.


Well, it appears the magic phrase is "boundary box". Since nobody else seemed to know ! Simon.

You can use a section of soilpipe or underground drain as a shaft - you'll need to cut the bottom of it to shape, so that it fits over the pipe but doesn't allow sand/soil to wah in over the tap/pipe.

Yep, the only issue is getting the little manhole-type thing on the top. Simon.
