Would something like this give you the space you need? (90 deg backplate)?

I get these 90 deg backplates from BES

And there was me about to suggest that you re-pipe the hob from an adjacent cupboard, so that the Isolation Valve might just be accessible......

Now, I do know that this is NOT the CC, but my last conversation with my Local GSR Inspector included his 'recommendation' that a M/F coupling with a test nipple attached be fitted at the inlet point to cooker/hobs - Am I the only bloke not fitting them?

You can buy Gas Appoved Iso Valves with a test nipple incorporated (or was that what you meant ). BES sell them. MAIN used to supply them with their multipoints, but its been so long since I fitted one that I dont know if they still do nowadays.
