The worse thing is it sticks to your nose hair for days, it's worse than sewage FOG.

 

It's like that burp where you can smell the stench of that last terrible meal.

It’s awful, the lorries come through the village and it stinks as they pass. The process is eye watering, the treatment plant is down the bottom, although no pleasant nothing like the factory.

Vent pipe off the sewer, lots of them were taken down and sealed off back in the day.

Have a walk around any older town and village, they usually had a decorative metal crown around the end, usually at the top of bottom of hills to off gas on its way to the treatment plant.

 

Think a lot are listed structures these days, so probably more decorative than functional, as I think the manhole grids in the road are vented ?.

 

I have vague memories of some also being lamp posts in some parts of the country.

Correct when more modern vented manhole covers were put in there was less need for vent pipes, as you say there is plenty still left and kept in good order although capped off. I don’t realise they were listed but it makes sense due to the age of them.

Hop on lass aslong as you do the hard work 😉.

I’m with ya, but it’s not going to happen, I’ve been down that road before. Gave the bosses daughter some loving, when it went wrong the work dried up, surprisingly!

I dismantled the trees growing on the pipe work and venting at the backside of that site a few months back. Are you running the unit next to the spinning pool thing on the bottom side?

 

I know some local lads who might be interested and able to stomach it if you DM me. 

 

You get used to the smell after half a day and that's coming from a vegan...
