[QUOTE="Mr Magoo, post: 356143, member: 3008"] Many buildings in the UK are hundreds of years old and a lot of the water supply's will come through piping that was laid down without a care in the world from private water supply's/springs. So fast forward to today's world and theses pipes have to be found for what ever reason. Short of hiring some ground penetrating radar there is not a lot of choice but to choose guess or use divining rods. Personally I was/am very skeptical of it. But I was involved on a job where the water board were laying down mains supply over a 17km stretch and connecting all the houses onto the new mains. Of coarse they had to find the old existing piping in all cases. So they were out with the divining rods, finding these old pipes. And having very reasonable success. It definitely gave it some credibility as they were not looking for abundant or not ground water but water flowing through pipe work. [/QUOTE]
