Just reciently had my conventional boiler removed and installed a combi. Use to be a handy place to hang my dryings; but now with combi I cannot dry any washing there. Looking for something with would heat up the cupboard inorder to get the washings dry.

If you still have access to the pipes under the floorboards (and not tiled over everything), then I'd imagine that it will be a pretty easy job to plumb in a small radiator or even a towel warmer, which will suffice for such a small volume.
Mind you, an electric tubular may be more suitable since it will be easier to have this on during the summer months than faff around with the CH circuit.

The picture above is a bit 'work in progress' from last year but you get the idea.
I too had no rad pipes going in, so I brought some through at the door end on the bottom right (capped, near all the white cables) and fed them to the back of the cupboard where the rad was going. I also raised the floor 100mm, insulated, and laid it with loft boards. Then lowered the ceilings 100mm and did the same there, as well as at the back where the radiator is.
I've put a couple of tubular heaters in there on a thermostat but to be honest I haven't plugged them in yet. The radiator though does keep it warm though not as hot as if you have a boiler & tank in there (even with insulation!), so you might want to consider something bigger than my 500*600.

Looks like a narrow-gauge railway line.
