You need to try to cut it as far below ground level as possible.
A barefoot on the cut face, and the steel will act as a blade.
As it is next to the footpath, can you get about 6 inches down?
Then you could cap it with a bit of broken paving slab and stiil have 4 inches of soil above it to support some grass.

Yeah thanks! Good advice.
I thought I'd stick something like this on top
Happy to just cut the pole below ground level and cut it. I thought about a hacksaw but was trying to work out how to get access to cut it below ground level...hence the angle grinder idea. It would be great if I could do without another power tool though.
I have an oscillating tool - can you get attachments that will cut a galvanised pole?
(EDIT - Sorry I @ the wrong person!)
