Can I delete individual iPad Safari cookies?
In Settings > Safari I can delete all cookies, but is it possible to delete just some please, to avoid losing many useful ones?

Thanks for the fast response. But meanwhile Ive been reading more threads and it appears that Settings > Safari > Website Data is suggested as the way to do it?

It's Settings > Safari > Advanced > Website Data.
Note that Website data is not the same as cookies. Deleting website data will not delete server cookies.
So what does this 'website data' include and what is the purpose and effect of deleting it?

That depends entirely on what the specific website uses it for. It varies from site to site. Often it is data that makes the site quicker to load on subsequent visits, or remembers various site settings you have set.
