I've just moved into my new house and I can't find where the water services come into the house - specifically, where the stop-cock is. The previous owner was a buy-to-letter and isn't taking my calls. How on earth do I find it, without employing a plumber (not that I've anything against plumbers, just against spending money unnecessarily!)?

It's not under the kitchen sink.

Thanks.

Common places;

Cellar if there is one, cupboard under stairs, under floor board near
front door, boxed in with access flap/hole (with luck) - or turn it off
outside.

I would estimate that 40% of my customers have no idea either.
