Get the fused spur moved.

Measure what size is needed to just clear the pipes and the front.

Look around for a kitchen cupboard to fit, get it cut down on a table
saw. If you can not find something suitable simply fix battens to the
wall as necessary, then go to B&Q and get them to cut down MDF on
their "wall saw" (gives a superb cut, better than the admittedly old
20k american table saw at the local hardware saw). Then paint it.

You can make a door out of MDF and hinge it. To make the entire
cupboard easily removable search on Ebay for "Rigifix". These require
a 12mm hole in the wall, you push in a nylon plug, then screw in a
threaded tube with an allen key, into that you can screw in a standard
M6 or M8 machine screw. That makes a VERY easy remove-refit system
which even the most clueless fool can manage. You just need to draw
out the dimensions and B&Q will cut to size for free.

Moving the boiler, well I would only do that at failure - otherwise it
is a lot of money to achieve little.
