What you need is a 1/4" BSW (Whitworth) socket. Your corner hardware store won't have it, but they can be found.
Here's a modest set on Amazon for under $30:

PS, if that size seems silly, it's because Whitworth sockets are sized by the diameter of the bolt, rather than the head. 1/4 BSW is also 5/16 BSF because BSF bolts have a smaller head (relative to thread size) than BSW.
