Re: Wht is the law with BT telephone cables

My house was built in 1982 soon after BT were told to abandon telephone poles and ducted the subscriber cables underground. ALL the thousands of houses built in the early to mid-eighties in my town have the BT cables looped from property to property underground.
In my case, I have the second pair in a chain of seven detached houses. If I look in my BT metal cavity access point (covering the hole in my brickwork), I see five pairs looping off for the next five houses. The pairs are in one cable and run under the gardens and across the drives along the front line of the properties.
Was this peculiar to the time period (1982) or do they still do this today?
