Of draining system

Salam and g'day everyone...

So, one of the thing that I had to do to the house is add a drainage system at the boundary between our house and our neighbor's. This is because, as the house is located on a hill area, the elevation of our land in relation to our neighbor's about a few feet high. Therefore, as I'm building the house and sort of terracing the land (to ensure that the land is flat) a few feet of retaining wall is required. So, to save the cost a bit, the contractor and us just decides to construct this little drain as to ensure that the elevation between our house and our neighbor's less visible and to ensure proper draining in case of heavy rain.

The draining system can be seen below


This is the pic of the drain today. It's actually not fully completed. Just for completeness sake, let me add another pic of the drain taken few days ago


For those of you with keen eye, you can see that on the right side of the drain, there's a tree. This tree has now been taken down...
