This is the Caithness Flagstone paving seen in Image Gentle falls from left and right deliver surface water to a channel that empties to the sewer below the square grating. The latter is assumed to be an old City Council pattern; examples were seen elsewhere. The 'Heel Sure' channel grating is more recent, made by Marshalls of Elland, West Yorkshire.
