It’s worth renting a small trencher for the weekend. Dig a proper trench and run 1” PVC electrical conduit (the gray stuff) between the two locations. Now you can run whatever you want — copper, fiber, or whatever — and it’s easy to replace.

re-run the cable preferably fiber or like you said p2p wireless bridge, good brands are ubiquiti, tplink and mikrotik
Mikrotik and TPlink seem like good options. I did think about ubiquiti but don't I need cloud keys and stuff for that?
Did you use internal cable by mistake? The cable shouldn't have failed after 1 year if done correctly.
Probably best to figure out what went wrong so you don't repeat the same mistake.
Would mesh reach there? I recently added one and made a world of difference ( from house to shed office in the garden). I’ve found it to be a stronger and more stable signal than using a wireless extender.
Re-run either fiber or Cat6, both Outdoor rated in conduit and be done with it. Fiber media converters are pretty inexpensive.
