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.
What are they? MANHOLE COVERS, that provide access to local service systems such as water, electricity, gas, and telecommunications.
Post photos of any interesting ones you find here.

FROM JOANNE & THEMIS -- BLACK BUOY HILL, WIVENHOE, ESSEX, ENGLAND
The green building at the left of the postcard is one of the (many) pubs in Wivenhoe. I used to drink there. The University of Essex is in Wivenhoe, and many, many years ago Joanne and I used to work in the Government Department there
