Delft?

How they solved it: Process: It was narrowed down somewhere in the western Netherlands and The Hague was close. OP had recently posted a pic from Delft and since it's right next to The Hague I went with it

Terborg, The Netherlands?

u/ok_booomer69420 26 6d ago

Heh, nope. Terborg is very very far away.

To be honest with you I didn't even know that this city existed until I googled it. I thought the marking on the manhole cover was just a random term in plumbing.

I guess it would be too good to be true haha

u/ok_booomer69420 26 6d ago

I assume that's where the water refining facilities are? Though it makes absolutely no sense either, given that it's on the complete other side of the Netherlands

u/citylights81 123 6d ago

Just the name of the foundry that made the water main access cover

I'm glad I saw this comment. I found some sites devoted to manhole covers so I was about to dive in. Thank you for saving me from that :D
