mains tap leaking?

How can I change the washer in the mains stopcock when I do not have access to the outside main feed to turn of the flow ?

If you have enough pipe visible before the stopcock, try using a pipe freezing kit to form a temporary ice plug. This will buy you enough time to repair the tap. Pipe freezing kits are available from most DIY sheds.
