What is this paved path drain?




Paving driveway - pave your drive or parking lot with blocks or gravel.

hi all

I?ve just bought a house which has a weird drain down the paving next to the house

Please see pics below

The other day this was over flown with water due to the bad storm however I don?t know if this is a drain or just a hole that?s been dug to allow surface water to run off

However I was prodding this with a garden cane to see if blocked and could feel what felt like soil and mud, after this a checked a couple of hours later and it had stopped being flooded and left some water in the pipe

The inside under the lid looks like this

Also near the driveway there is a long rectangular grate which just appears to capture run off water and it just has an oval hole in the centre, which is full of soil indecently.

Any idea?s if these drain into a sewer or just let water go into the soil and drain naturally.
