Removing Curtain Rod holders embedded in Archs

Hi All

I am the owner of a late 50s home and am about to paint the architraves around the windows and replace the curtain with timber venetian blinds.

i have an issue with these windowns as there are bent metal curtain rod holders protruding from behind the architraves/skirting on the side of the window.

These are quite loose and wobble around and seem to be able to be removed easily (hopefully :) )

Does anyone know a way of removing these without having to remove the archivtraves/skirting?
