Excellent Andy, thanks again. I'll follow up on those ideas.

Thanks Andy that looks great but still doesn't tell me how the
deleted ways were tagged?
Am I missing something?
No - osmhv doesn't show previous tags of deletions, but it's useful
for showing where things have been deleted (or moved) from.
Potlatch 1 is one place that you could go if you want to browse around
and see how things were tagged:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/edit?editor=potlatch#map=18/53.02185/-2.17857
That shows a hotch-potch of stuff there (the last geometry before
deletion, which may not be the last geometry before this user's first
edit).
Another option might be to use JOSM's reverter plugin, but not
actually upload the results - that'll show the geometry before that
changeset within JOSM.
Looking at what was there it may be worth asking the mapper whether
they deleted the buildings because they've been knocked down and the
area's being redeveloped, or because they made a mistake editing it,
or what was there wasn't very accurate and they're starting from a
clean sheet, or something else.
Cheers,
Andy
