A previous reconciliation on 31/12/2018 had had the statement date entered as 31/12/20 rather than 31/12/2018 which causes the entered date to be read as 31/12/2020 into GnuCash. I checked the entered dates on all transactions which had 2020-12-31 as the recociliation date verified these were all splits to the account I had been trying to reconcile and that the entered dates were consistent with a reconciliation statement end date of 2018-12-31 for a reconciliation carried out on 15/01/2019.
Editing the XML data file and changing all reconciliation dates set at 2020-12-31 to 2018-12-31 The account now reconciles with the correct starting balance.
