Does anyone know of a way to find out where on the property it is located? - ie at the front or rear or the property, etc.
Can you not ascertain it's route via manhole covers? The one that runs across the front and side of ours can easily be traced via the manhole cover out front and the two in next door's garden.

That's a good idea. Unfortunately I'm not living nearby at the moment. I've asked the estate agent if he can ask.
It might be easier to organise going over in person... Hmm mm.
@Aroogah - cheers. That's positive at least. It's not in the sort of area where I think it would be an issue. A neighbour has also had extensive work done under permitted development, so I'd hope that at a minimum the LA would agree to that.
It's a bit frustrating as it adds uncertainty for somewhere we'd plan to live for a long time (as well as resale issues if things go South).

The drainage search has shown there is a public sewer within the boundary of the property. Our solicitors are a bit shit.

The big thing would be weather it would prevent an extention at the rear.
Also as the place we're looking at is ex local authority there is a restrictive covenant which looks to require council consent for any alterations. Has anyone heard of this before and how strictly it enforced.
My land law is a very rusty but I'm assuming getting a LA to agree to remove a 40yo covenant won't be easy.
