Pipe in french drain in yard

[Flat 10]

Classic bodge really, do I need twin wall given it will be driven on at times or can I use land drain as it’s cheaper and laying around? Stoned to surface

 

[Doing it for the kids]

If they crush you still have the stone.

Depends how often / heavy they get driven over

A French drain, in the Fens, the Brexitiers will be up in arms! Whats wrong with a good old English open ditch. Just make sure your measurements are all done in chains, feet and inches!

Twinwall then, at least where you are going to drive over it.

I had some perforated pipe that comes on a coil down at 3ft plus and in the heavy traffic area it still got crushed twin wall every time now
