Unfortunate ... you will probably be better off getting a new lock.
They are reasonably easy to change, a bit fiddly but with the plastic, steering wheel and binnacle off.

Eek....but of course! Thanks for your adviceAs above, a new lock is probably about the same price as a new key anyway! There should be a code on the barrel the key is matched to but you may have to take the barrel out to see the code which you need the key for

If you remove the plastic cowling around the indicator stalks, or the wiring behind the speedo there may be a white label with red print, sometimes held on with string . The key number should be written on that.
If it is, a locksmith should be able to cut a new key from the number.

It is, although the blue box brigade have added 3 door locks so that you only need to 1 key to get in the car and drive it away.
See https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/1996-lr-defender-lost-ignition-key.396528/post-5789565 for the correct ignition lock.
