Does anyone recognise this meter type - how to turn the water off?

Featured Replies

I'm trying to turn the water off in a relative's house - the internal stop cock is seized so went to look in the manhole in the street.

 

However there's a water meter in there - quite recently installed I think - but no obvious stop cock.

 

Is anyone familiar with this type? Is there something built into the meter that allows the water to be turned off?

Should be a seepage stop tap in another “hole”

In the pavement? The only other one I can see is the neighbours'.

 

As far as I know, the stop tap was in this hole before the meter got put in.

No idea where seepage came from, stupid corrective text. 
Can’t see there being no stop tap before the meter

Is that not a blue turny bit at the bottom of the photo?

No, not as far as I can tell.
