By your suggestion, this looks like a good one: HP ELITEDESK 705 G4 Mini-PC AMD 
Ryzen 5 Pro 3.6 GHz Quad Core - 16GB /256GB NVMe for £149

why Ryzen?

My preference is the HP Elitedesk series, because they come with a ryzen cpu.

    Thanks Hugh, This looks like the best option. I currently use a USB Wifi 
Dongle, but will need to get a connector to my display, a Wireless Mouse and a 
replacement for my well-loved old PS2 Keyboard.  And maybe some USB Headphones.

    Keep my C&N USB webcam.

    looking at the back of my monitor there are 4 rubber plugs that might be a 
means of connecting it on the back. More work needed there.  - That's a 100mm x 
100mm VESA mount point.

    Buy a 3yr old ‘1ltr PC’ from eBay, corporate refurb. Stick with HP, Dell or 
Lenovo.

    Excellent build quality, cheap, upgradable (M.2 slots in most of them), 
decent CPU.

    Then use your existing monitor with a displayport to dvi cable.
