Cheers for the suggestions - I hadn't even thought to slide it out.
It looks as though it was been screwed through (with pretty bog standard wood screws), from the cupboard on the left, prior to that cupboard being fitted - As in , there's no way to access the screw head without removing the cupboard, and no way to cut the screws either, because of access.
Looks like I'm trying to cut the dowels and hoping to bodge any snags away.

When the kitchen was built it's likely they would have slid the unit in there and fixed it in place. Can you find those fixings, unscrew them and slide the whole thing out?
Possibly screwed through under the hinges of the cupboard next to it or just from the inside.
I guess it could have been the first thing in and the walls/cupboards are at a slight angle keeping it in place.
If you can cut the dowels with a multi tool and slide the panel out there's not much downside to using angle brackets unless they snag the new fridge/freezer.
