so it is from the spindle not the bottom nut.
don't turn the spindle with the two flat side
do the part below the spindle got 5 sides.
turn clockwise. but doubt it'll move.
but looking at it the seals gone on the spindle. new valve.

the condition of it i'd just fit a new valve.
cost to get a plumber to do it ????
£30 - £160 depending 
It's worth an extra try to do the nut up tight, with strong grips, sometimes they're made so it does seal the shaft, sometimes not.
You'll have to hold the body of the valve still while you try it.
