Its the same fuse as the front one, however some of the sockets do have built in fuses between the connectors on the rear so if the front one is working then check the connectors and see if you can see where the fuse has melted!
The fuse down by the drivers knee is;

Cheers Geoff,

must be a fuse somewere else as the front one works fine i am now thinking it might have been changed due to the fact i have a leisure battery fitted and i dont need the ignition on to use these sockets.

Yes if you have a leisure battery fitted that will almost certainly be the case, if the fuse above hasn't been replaced by a wire then you will have to search around, but its normal to switch BOTH to the same source via the same fuse, so I would still check the back of the rear socket and see if you have one of the fused variety. Otherwise its possible that they have also beefed up the wiring to the rear socket and provided it with its own fuse, look at the L/B and follow the wiring back from the +VE terminal you will probably find a fuse box fitted under the bonnet.
