... and the first job is to find and free off the not-touched-since-King-Æthelred water-supplier's stopcock in the road. That is unless the water comes from a spring locally named Manon de Sources.
The water supply comes in a 15mm supply through the woodland from a nearby lane that eventually loops around to our gate. There is a meter in our hedge next to the woods, about 35m from where the dupply emerges in the garage in 32mm plastic, before T-ing off to 2 x 22mm plastic and going back into the floor, one side to the tap near the veg plot (we know this as there is a cutoff before it goes back into the floor), the other presumably to the house, where somehow it re-emerges in 15mm copper.
There are also 2 ornamental "hand pump" style ornaments in the lawn which have functioning taps, not sure how they are fed but presumably before it gets to the garage.
