Noticed a couple of holes appeared in the grass this week, about the
size of an empty toilet roll (2inch?) the first one I run the hose
down and it never filled ( A Chaplin sketch comes to mind lol) then I
placed a brick over it. The second I just put some old bricks, cement
down it. Next day the cement had been taken out!!

What could possibly be making them and why? I presume rats though
somewhat small maybe! Why no soil spoil either? If a mole needs to
make such big hills, how come this creature doesn't?

Not too fussed as I only cut my grass to make the lawn tidy, rather
than look like a cricket pitch. Just curious.

You don't say where you live. Since the water from your hose disappeared,
and then the cement, it sounds like a bottomless pit is opening up under
your garden. First thing that crossed my mind was old mine workings
shrinking. Since you aren't interested in cricket, you could always take up
golf. :-)
