Now I look at the tank again, there's actually a a small
tap just below the bottom element -- I hadn't noticed it
before because it's so close to the floor. So I just need
to get myself a bit of hose to wedge onto it.

And many thanks to everyone for all the replies.

One final tip. Loosen (but don't remove!) the old immersion heater *before*
you drain the cylinder. It will be *much* easier with the weight of water
keeping the cylinder still. It will probably require a *lot* of shifting -
maybe by sliding a metal tube over the handle of your immersion spanner to
get greater leverage.
