Got it off after a few hours of carefully dremeling notches to I had somewhere to hold a chisel and hammering with a 3 lb mini sledge.
Threaded new axle nut on as far as I could, now I just have to do final torque on the ground. If I bolt everything back up and I have no more wheel bearing noise from that side (I replaced wheel bearing, circlip and dust shield while the hub was out) I will be absolutely amazed with all the hammering I did.
Although I'm reading on here that placing blocks of wood over the hub face and hammering in the center is the preferred method of choice to get the axle to push back into the hub, so I may be OK after all.
