@XRaySpeX Curtilage does not mean it's on an outside wall of a building per say. Would be zero need for an engineer visit.

@shakey19811 Looking like pre-install stage one, get the Fibre up to the outside wall for your home. Civils will be the one arranged to get all they are doing first, if it be digging, trunking laid in or just buried Fibre cable below the surface garden wise. If you are about at home good idea as you will see what they do and were to avoid spading in the future.
