[QUOTE="Silversnapper, post: 816541, member: 52909"] Hmm, this could present a problem for us in England (and possibly the rest of the UK and Europe) Fire hydrants in England are normally in a chamber below ground level under the pavement (sidewalk) and covered by a removable or hinged metal plate access cover. As close as feasibly possible to this spot will be a sign similar to the one shown here. The capital H means hydrant, the top number is the diameter of the water main feeding the hydrant and the lower number indicates the distance in metres from the access cover. Sometimes there will be an arrow pointing in the direction of the access point. [ATTACH type="full" alt="Hydrant_Sign.jpg"]401610[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
