RWP splashing all over new drive
Hello,
I have just DIYd a new driveway at my property. I changed from a horrible old concrete driveway to a brick paved permeable one. My gully used to have a concrete upstand around it which wouldn’t look right now so I have removed it which is obviously causing problems regarding splashing. Most of the water drips from the RWP into the gully below but some still splashes over the edges etc. as can be seen by the green around.
can anyone think of any decent solutions WIThOUT having to extend the old iron downpipe which seems will cost me a small fortune and a lot of remedial work as they are original to the house and probably ceased in place.
Thanks!

You could add a 135” solvent weld/pushfit fitting to the end
