Which winch controller and socket?
Has anyone got any recommendations for either a decent wireless controller or wired socket and controller which would be compatible with this solenoid?

If you haven't already done so, you might want to take a look at this thread.

Thanks guys, have enquired about lodar will have to see what costs are. Any idea how to work out which each of the spade connectors on my solenoid are for to wire the controller correctly? They don't seem to be labeled.

The middle spade will no doubt be the "common", then the LH and RH will operate in & out respectively.

You can either connect the middle to chassis ground, and introduce 12v to either of the others, or middle spade has 12v and the outer 2 spades switch to ground when you operate the remote.

you'd have to check the destructions that come with the remote kit to see how their switched output is setup though.

Worth noting that if you do want a controller such as the Lodar mini then it is worth looking at the Warrior Winches Centurion controller which is a re-badged version of the Lodar for a fair chunk less money.
