Thanks for all your help again,

I now have

Driver: GTiff/GeoTIFF
Files: sh98.tif
Size is 4000, 4000
Coordinate System is:
PROJCS["OSGB 1936 / British National Grid",
    GEOGCS["OSGB 1936",
        DATUM["OSGB_1936",
            SPHEROID["Airy 1830",6377563.396,299.3249646000043,
                AUTHORITY["EPSG","7001"]],
            AUTHORITY["EPSG","6277"]],
        PRIMEM["Greenwich",0],
        UNIT["degree",0.0174532925199433],
        AUTHORITY["EPSG","4277"]],
    PROJECTION["Transverse_Mercator"],
    PARAMETER["latitude_of_origin",49],
    PARAMETER["central_meridian",-2],
    PARAMETER["scale_factor",0.9996012717],
    PARAMETER["false_easting",400000],
    PARAMETER["false_northing",-100000],

Pixel Size = (2.500000000000000,-2.500000000000000)

Corner Coordinates:

Band 1 Block=512x512 Type=Byte, ColorInterp=Palette
  Overviews: 4000x4000, 2000x2000, 1000x1000, 500x500, 250x250, 125x125, 63x63, 
32x32
  Color Table (RGB with 256 entries)
    0: 89,72,73,255
...

The while process I followed was
1) Took the raw TIF images
2) Added a .PRJ file for each image
3) Added the World file for each
4) Ran gdal_translate for each file
for file in `ls *tif`
do
gdal_translate -of GTiff -co "TILED=YES" -co "COMPRESS=DEFLATE" -co 
"BLOCKXSIZE=512" -co "BLOCKYSIZE=512" -a_srs "EPSG:27700" $file out/$file
done
5) Ran a gdaladdo for each file in 'out'
for file in `ls *tif`
do
gdaladdo -r nearest $file 1 2 4 8 16 32 64 128
done

6) Added them to Geoserver (2.2 RC1) using ImageMosaic

Anything I have missed?
