Moved into a new house this week (new to us, not a new build) and initially had a bit of trouble locating the gas meter. Eventually found it in the kitchen, however it is almost fully enclosed within a plasterboard wall with only the reading display visible and a small hole to reach the gas tap. The kitchen is an extension, however I have no idea why whoever built it didn't fit a proper door or hatch of some kind to hide the meter. My main concern is safety, and I'm wondering if anyone could offer advise as to whether this kind of installation is acceptable or not.
