Unable to access tap cartridge

[ssr]

Hello All,

Would really appreciate any advice on whether it's possible to replace the cartridge on a dripping tap. I have the following tap http://www.willesdenbathrooms.co.uk...rn-spout-monobloc-kitchen-sink-mixer-tap.html - but when I remove the tap handle, I cannot access the nut on top of the cartidge due to the design of the tap as per the attached photo.

I'm thinking I need to buy a new tap, any bright ideas?

Many thanks!

The item costs £36.99...and you are trying to service it?..Various cartridges exist at various prices.By the time you have dismantled it to see which part you need..put it back together,sourced the part.dismantled it again and hopefully fitted the new part without damaging the finish..you will have saved yourself about £15..assuming free labour!..In our throw away society.....do just that!
