This where the Image discharges back into the old sewer via a manhole. Anglian Water are renovating the sewer system in Lodge Lane. The pipes are a temporary system to carry the effluent down Lodge Lane to this point. Meanwhile the old sewer can be drained, cleaned out and re-lined to make it water tight once more without having to dig up too much of the road. See https://www.anglianwater.co.uk/hidden-pages/investing-to-protect-homes-and-the-environment-in-grays/ if all goes to plan the over-ground sewer will begin to be dismantled in a few days time.
