Okay, this is a box with only a shutoff valve, located in my yard, downstream of the meter which is ten feet closer to the street. Everything here looks and feels like plastic. The grey thing on the right in the top pic is a 90-degree elbow pointing down. The second pic shows that same grey elbow pointing down, and the pipe connected to it. As I say, as near as i can tell everything is plastic. I could measure that pipe going into the ground, but I'd guess it is around 1.25 - 1.5 inches OD. House was built in 1999.

Thanks, Crowbob. Very helpful. I am curious about this buried valve controller. Is it buried but accessible, similar to a water meter? Does it have electrical, or it it a box of mechanical valves for different system branches?
