Hi all
Just puzzled by the shape of my 1970s cistern.
I am re-furbing a downstairs toilet and noticed that the existing cistern
has a kind of curved cut-out in the back at the top left hand side.
This can be clearly seen in the picture below:

There is no corresponding protrusion in the lid to cover this.
Anyone got any idea what the purpose of this profile might be?
TIA
Phil
It's so the overflow can be taken straight out the back if desired
(althgough no-one ever bothers!)
I withdraw that remark as it's stupid! Too late in the afternoon. One feels
it's for a pipe of some sort though.
