For the past 3 days I've been trying to trace a leak in the farm water supply. Digging down at a suspected source of the leak I found a section of 6" clay pipe which is painted white all around the pipe - or at least the 15 or so inches I've so far unearthed. None of the other drains I've come across since I've been here have been painted, they were just the basic fired brown.
Other slightly strange thing is that the pipe doesn't seem to be at a place where it would serve to drain anywhere in that it's orientation doesn't suggest it connects into a ditch or other water course.
Just curious as to whether this painting had any significance in the past??
Thanks
