No! This is at the back of the house, Gas comes in at the front and water too. The water supply is relatively new though so I suppose it could be an old water supply (did they use to use metal pipes for that?)
I will see if I can have a look at one of the neighbours manholes and see if they have one too.

turn a mains tap on to see if you can hear any noise in the pipe
but leave the plug in or you might not hear much for the water draining away
