Can go into any; sewer, storm drain or soakaway: Depends on age of property and where it is in relation to nearby services. By rights though it "should" go to a storm drain.
Ours goes into the sewer (that's how it was built)...one is blocked as I noticed when I trod in a 4" deep puddle wearing slippers on Tuesday night
...something I should have sorted today but really can't be arsed 
Our old house had separate storm which I believe ran to a piped stream leading to the Stour. I recall we had the water authority round flushing dye down the bogs because some numbnut in the street had connected their bog to the storm drainage system.

No problem as such, am gonna be having some landscaping work done in a few months and I'm trying to find out what's buried in the back yard, neighbour said that the down pipe would lead into a gravel soak away in the back garden but to me that doesn't sound right.
