What tracks could this be?

Martin or similar?

Do they not wake up every now and then during winter to empty themselves and fluff up the pillows etc? Im sure other mammals do.

Yeah think you're right Davey now I've had a read. Sometimes they can move to another nest or get up for snacks mid hibernation...
I've been known to 'snack' at three in the morning but I won't go into that!..
SO might still be a hedgehog going back under the shed.
The one that we had under ours used to make very loud sniffing noises when active at night.
The tracks do look like a heavier mammal going by depth of tread.
