Just recently upgraded to IOS 7.
Clicked photo app
went to photo stream album (there is an <Album button on top left then top right you can choose Select Bottom has a Photo's icon and and album icon) no trash icon
Hit select - pick the photos I want deleted.
Only available courses of action now are to cancel top right
or send by message, mail, twitter etc bottom left
or Add to bottom right
In selecting add to there is no trash available only other albums or a new album.

I was just typing this when you replied. What happened is that your PC created a folder called "Photo Stream" automatically when you enabled photo stream on it, possibly on a different PC. This would have been inside your My Pictures folder. At some point you must have synced it to your device, where it was then stranded. Syncing My Pictures again would then delete them.
