hello,

we've got a large rectangular manhole cover in the middle of the front lawn.
not a pretty sight

is it ok to paint it green? or should i ask permission from the water co or
whoever it belongs to?

My parents have a similar cover right in the centre of their back garden.
as a kid I used to use it as a ramp for wheeliying asorterd vheicles
over. It has however for the last 30 years been a delightfull flower bed
with a stone birdbath on top. Still accessible should the need ever
arise, but as it's never been opened in 50 years I doubt there will ever
be a need for access.
