Manual Drain Valve

Device designed to allow drainage of stored contents from a water heater.

A plastic or brass valve located near the bottom of the water heater that allows the tank to be drained when the water heater needs to be replaced and also permits periodic partial draining by the homeowner to flush out sediments that may have accumulated in the bottom of the tank.

A valve located at the bottom of a spill container to drain accumulated liquid into the UST. Drain valves, depending on the type, may be activated by pulling a chain, pushing a rod, or pulling a lever.

Plumpton Lake's Plughole

The stone blocks in this dam have steadfastly held back the waters of the artificial Plumpton lake since the mid eighteenth century, when they were put there by the designer John Carr to replace an even older barrier. It is listed as a Grade II Heritage Site. The overflow water in the lake now drains away through a more modern channel cut away at the side of the dam, but this rusty appendage (also known as a Sluice Valve) looks like it might be an old manual drainage pipe for the lake.
