Default Blanking off gas pipe

Refurbishing my kitchen, I have found a capped off gas pipe protruding
from the wall about 2½ inches, just where I want to put the washing
machine. The pipe is buried in the wall. I am hoping if I cut into the
wall I will find an elbow, and will be able to unscrew it and fit a
blanking plug. Does this sound feasible? I should have said, the pipe is
iron. (House built 1960's).TIA


I'd try and find an easier part of the pipe to work on and cap it there -
unless you've got solid floors etc.
