1850 cartridge removal

am struggling to get the cartridge to budge.

Do you know what size of socket would be needed to do it that way?

However if you can pour afew kettles of boiling water over the valve (this will help expand it ) thengive the nut a few sharp taps with a hammer ( be firm but not enough to damageit0 then give it a try it should come away then.
