Vertical storm water drainage pipe

Vertical storm water drainage pipe

Hi everyone, 

 

We’ve been doing some work in the back garden and have had to replace some of our storm water drainage pipes. We have no connection to the street and are on a pretty decent slope downwards. 

So all the water runs to the back of our garden and ultimately into our neighbors yard (and they have no issues with it).

 

We were contemplating building a rubble pit but just simply don’t have the funds right now. 

So I want to just take the pipe you see in the image attached and add a vertical pipe that sticks out of the ground so the water can dissipate across the garden (mainly the dirt area) you see in the corner of our garden. The pipe is standard 90mm.

is there a name for that type of pipe that sits above the ground for storm drainage? I would want it to have a grate or cover or something on top so no debris gets in. 

cheers!
