Information

There must be billions of them in the world. We pass them every day. We walk on them. We do not take any notice of them. They are heavy, and usually made of cast iron. They come in many different shapes, sizes and patterns. Look, and you will find them everywhere.

Post photos of any interesting ones you find here.

Comment by Valentine Mark Herman on July 10, 2021 at 9:14am: HOLES, BUT NOT NECESSARILY, WITH MANHOLE COVERS, IN BLACKBURN, LANCASHIRE, ENGLAND, FROM SGT PEPPER'S LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND TRACK "A DAY IN THE LIFE"

"I read the news today, oh boy
Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire
And though the holes were rather small
They had to count them all
Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall"

Bon Weekend, Corporal Herman
