If you have a multitool and a narrow blade that will fit in the hole -
cut a new deep slot in the screwhead and wind it out with a flat bladed

Not enough space for multi tool.
Update:...........
I eventually drilled off the screw head and had another screw that fits
from an old tap, so problem solved.
As it turns out the reason it was seized was the screw was actually bent
and had been forced home, the new screw works ok so the threads have not
been damaged.
