Found a tap on the pipe from the large loft tank to the bottom of the aiting cupboard tank. If I TURN THAT OFF AM i RIGHT IN ASSUMING I only have to drain the airing cupboard tank?

I need to change a hot tap washer. I can't find a stop cock after the tank to turn the hot water off. (Hose built 1971 3 bed semi) Do I have to drain the tank? It's a vented??? system. (gas fire heats water, tank in airing cupboard, big and little tank in loft). If I have to drain the tank does...

Got the pilot light lit this morning, all works a treat now. Thanks again for your help.
