British lives were saved by the use of information obtained from terrorist suspects by "waterboarding", according to former US President George W Bush.
In his memoir, he said the simulated drowning technique helped break plots on Heathrow Airport and Canary Wharf.
Number 10 declined to comment on the claims but said it considered waterboarding to be torture.
"We don't condone it [torture], nor do we ask others to do it on our behalf," a spokeswoman said.
Mr Bush's memoir, Decision Points, is being serialised in the Times.
