Is there a special tool the council use to turn off the mains water into the house? and can you buy these from a diy shop?

you can buy a 1m long key from b&q but if you can reach it you may be able to turn it by hand.

You can also use your hand if your arm is long enough and the tap not too stiff from corrosion
