It bears the Norwich City crest > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6309834 on one side and the maker's name (Woodrow & Co, London) > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6309836 on the other. AC Woodrow & Co specialised in cast-iron castings and are one of the most commonly seen names on manhole covers and other street ironware. The business was started in Holborn, London, but later moved out to Kent. Stench or stink pipes are always made from cast iron and usually painted grey or green and look similar to street lamps at ground level but tend to be noticeably higher and wider. They are also hollow and commonly have a wire balloon on top. The purpose of these pipes is to vent gas from the underground sewers, releasing it high above street level so as not to offend delicate noses.
