cost of drainage

[boyo]

Roughly how much does a decent drainage system for fields work out per meter. I've got a wet spot that needs sorting but it's a long run before there is any outfall.

I have yet to find a wet spot in a field that wasn't caused by existing drains in need of repair.
A day or two with a mini digger would fix it normally. Might be worth considering that first.

Don't know the price of a full system.

There is nothing there at the moment. It's partly caused by the fact the road has over the years become higher than the field so there is now nowhere for it to go other than piping it the other way.

£7-10 a metre depending on spec.
Stone backfill?
Pipe size?
Trencher or backhoe?
