Hi all. We are trying to install a new washing machine in our home. The previous owners had a slot for a washing machine. We noticed that there is only one hose in the wall. I would have expected an inlet for fresh water and an outlet to drain away dirty water. Image attached. How do we use this one hose to connect the machine? Please advise. Thanks.

both plints are screwed on tight to the base. I put my hand into the hole as far as i could but couldn't feel a pipe or anything else.
ok whats in the next unit to the right?
A tumble drier on one side and 3 shelves for cutlery on the other.
Remove plinths, shine torch and take photo if anything found.
the next one over to the right eg 2nd one to the right sink unit?
Quite often pipes will come from under your sink. They may have removed the hoses with the old machine.
While your installing your washer that cable wrapped in tape and smashed socket look pretty suspect. An easy fix while you have access.
