Hey Geoff Clegg, let's jump right into this! 

Since you already checked your deleted files page, would you mind taking a look at your events page too? 

Also, if we're talking about shared content, I'd also take a look at the account's sharing tab to see what it reports.

Lastly, can you clarify which platform you used to upload the content in the first place? Did you use your desktop app, mobile app or website?

Let me know more, and we'll take it from there!
