I have a brass mains stopcock, but there is also another valve type thing just above it, and I wondered what this is? I tried tightening one of the nuts but the whole assembly goes one way and then the other. Can anyone help me please?

No that's not it. I tried 2 wrenches but if you include this other thing on top of the stopcock, there is about 4 nuts.
 
is it a check valve ?

Sort of but its got a big chimney style nut coming out of the side instead, fitted about 1990, so might not be used any more.
 
try posting a pic, I'm sure someone will know what it is once they see it.
