I have the right spanners but the top lock nut has nothing for the spanners to hold onto its just a circle and has no grooves

You need bicycle-specific tools called cone wrenches. Once you have those, there are a thousand tutorials on YouTube and elsewhere on what to do next.
Put it back in the bike. Tighten the cone temporarily. This should release the tension to unscrew that nut by hand, or with a pair of pliers. Release the tension you put on the cone as soon as you can to avoid damage to the bearings. Try and replace with a nut you can grip.
