Leak from central heating drain?

HI,
I have a Halstead-Eden 32 CBX. I switched the boiler off at the plug & bled my bathroom radiator. I then altered the filling loop to build the pressure back up. I have done this before with no problem, but this time water started to leak from the c/h drain, & is still dripping now. Help!

You will have to get a spanner or pliers and see if the draincock has just worked loose.If it has it should tighten and the leak should stop.If the washer inside has broken down you may have to fit a new drain cock which means a draindown of the system im afraid.
