What could this be?

I found this on an inspection today. The homeowner said that he did not know what it was and never used it. He also would not let me unscrew the top to figure out what it was. The pipe its in is a length of tar sewer pipe. Any help would be appreciated. I really hate telling a client that I don’t even recognize something.

Is there a sprinkler system on the property?


It looks like a well casing to me. I had one similar to this at my house in Fla. and it was a shallow well for the sprinkler system.

My ex-mother inlaw has one here in Boise ID and it's strictly for yard/gardening.

That's my best guess and I'm sticking to it. LOL

Good luck
