If the grid/cover is yellow then it's probably a fire hydrant.The bricks around one of the covers (painted yellow )outside boots are starting to collapse.

Not quite market square but they have managed to put all the bricks back after digging up outside the old M&S, so that goes to show that contactors never need to put tarmac down after 'repairs'.
And the pipe size.Haven't seen the area you are referring to, however yellow is indeed used to indicate "Fire Hydrants". There should be a sign near by, 'probably attached to an adjacent building' indicating how far the Hydrant is, in metric, away from this sign.
There's still a few imperial ones about, inches for pipe diameter and feet for distance.Haven't seen the area you are referring to, however yellow is indeed used to indicate "Fire Hydrants".

That’ll change soon now we’ve taken our sovereignty back. None of that Johnny Foreigner metric rubbish here don’t you know.There's still a few imperial ones about, inches for pipe diameter and feet for distance.
Rumour has it that they were unable to complete some work at the corner of the Shire Hall because of the scaffolding that was there at the time.They were digging up the Market Square new-look paving stones today. All cordoned off.
No rumour, it's true.Rumour has it that they were unable to complete some work at the corner of the Shire Hall because of the scaffolding that was there at the time.
As with any rumour, there may, or may not, be some or any truth in it.
Who knows...
