No, it's only about 32mm in diameter. If I remember correctly, when
I boxed it in (replacing some bulkier 100year-old looking boxing)
there was another pipe that came down parallel to that one, and was
capped off half the way down the wall.

Two pipes of that diameter running parallel could be old feeds from a
back boiler or kitchen range - possibly in the original house before
conversion. If you go down from them would that take you to where an
old range or fire place might have been?

The flat has always been part of a tenement, although the kitchen used to be
close to this part of the room, I believe.
