You need a UDF and use that

Function IsFormula(rng As Range)
IsFormula = rng.HasFormula
End Function

and use that in the CF.

I've got a formula in a column, but in certain circumstances I may
overwrite this formula with a number (too rare a special case to bother
covering)

What I'd like though is to use Conditional Formatting to alter cell to
Bold or something to show that this is *a manual override*

Can't see how you can check for formula present ?

Any ideas ?
