Thats what I thought - would need a hell of a lot of water to go
through 9" engineering brick plus the meter box and board, but when I
questioned it I was told that if that is what it states in the
guidelines they sent me then it is not acceptable and they will refuse
connection...

Do you have space in front? If they want 30cm from the pipe and you've
already got a 15cm thick wall, then will a 15cm thick stud framework mounted
on the wall get past this bureaucratic buffoonery?

Mmmmm thats a thought. Would prefer a flush mounted box as its facing
the patio area, but if I cant find an alternative this may be a way
around it.

I guess the other way around it would be to change the order of the
works so there are no pipes present when they come to do the move :-)
