Hi Everyone

I have just removed a floor to find out where a WC waste pipe goes. As you will see from the picture, it branches off a long way and is then capped off. I cannot see that it needs this long extension on the right hand side, running along the wall. I presume I could cut it back to nearer the swept bendnear the down pipe. Any advice greatly appreciated.

Many thanks

Paul
