How can I either cut these screws slightly recessed from the surface, or screw them out slightly, but without access the the screw heads? Just need them in a bit so I can filler over the hole without them poking out

Screw extractor bits

If they're in an external wall, and if you have a solid / cross bonded wall (which I'm guessing, since you have lime plaster), they'll get damp and rust, and knacker whatever finish you have over them.

Never heard of those bits before, will investigate.

No these are in some MDF built in wardrobes the previous owner built into some alcoves. He must have assembled them outside the alcove and then moved them in. I'm keeping the frame he built but redoing the insides and doors.
