No holes to stick my allen keys, no bolts to undo, I am absolutely stumped.
Any ideas?

I see the left hand crank has a hex bolt at the BB. You may need to do something with that. -

YIKES! Your crank is attached to a once ubiquitous AMERICAN ONE-PIECE CRANK ...
Remove the left/non-driveside cup ... remove the pedal, BTW ... the crank will then just slither through the oversized BB shell with a couple of contorsions & twists!
There is an adapter which will allow you to fit a standard British "threaded" BB, if that is your eventual desire ... as with all adapters, it is something like $25US (plus, shipping) ... your local BMX dealer may be able to get the adapter, BTW, for less.

As Alfeng correctly advised.
Here is a link to a little more detail on the subject:
