I am looking for a digging spike (or whatever it is called). It is
similar to a wrecking bar but is straight and about 5 feet long with a
spike at one end and a flat at the other for hitting with a hammer.

I bought one at Hunter Tools of Godalming, Surrey. I also thought the
flat end was for wacking with a sledgehammer, but I was told don't do
this - that end should be used as a tamping tool, and might crack if
hit with a sledgehammer.
