To everyone that replied.
Thanks for all the great ideas, I have not tried the rope down the plug
before, sounds a good one.
It's to late to try starting it, totally stripped everything from the
engine.
 Heating may work but I cannot lay my hands on any Oxy gear.
At the weekend I will try all the suggestions and post the outcome.

 All The Best

I used a special tool that unscrews anything  Solid !!!
I tried a chisel on the joint, broke chisel. Solid !!!
I have been told about welding on a nut but it seems 9 of the 14 are stuck
I have been told, get a club hammer and smash it to bits then replace it
with another.
Any ideas of a less drastic nature please.
