This old stop-tap cover is one of several set into the pavement outside houses on Ox-Hey Drive. The Staffordshire Potteries Water Board was a public sector water supplier that was taken over by Severn Trent Water Board when the service was privatised in 1974, following the introduction of the Water Act in 1973.
