Long story short, I had a plumber out today and he need to turn off the external water supply. After waiting for Severn Trent for four hours he had to leave.
When the inspector eventually turned up he showed me the key attachment he used to turn the supply off. It fits over the whole meter and the whole thing turns to shut off the supply.
Being as the plumber will have to come back to finish the work and I don't fancy having to call out the Severn Trent guys again after having waited all day for them this time I thought I'd enquire as to what it might be called and where I'd be able to source one from as my Googling has been completely in vain.
The inspector let me take a photo, He seemed completely in the dark as to where you'd get one or what it was called as well!
Cheers!
