What to do with downpipe that ends in middle of backyard?

Moved into a new home that slopes down from front of the house to the back. Stormwater drain at the front of house but I have a pipe the ends above ground in middle of the back lawn. It’s connected to downpipes at back of the house. I’m trying to figure out what to do with the pipe and my options. At the moment I’m wondering if it’s worth running it further away from the back patio foundation into a soakwell having the whole thing underground. Or are there other options to put on the end of the pipe?

Hi @b1gwest,

 

Firstly, welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community, it is great to have you onboard.

 

I'm having trouble picturing how everything is laid out. Would it be possible to add some photos so our members can give you the best advice possible?

 

I'm happy to help guide you through this if you have any trouble,

 

Jacob
