I have inadvertently deleted a folder with a large number of files in it from the documents folder in the

Greetings, clifffromaustralia.
I see that you've accidentally deleted a folder from the iCloud Drive folder on your Windows 10 PC. I'm happy to help.
iCloud: Use iCloud Drive on iCloud.com -- Using a web browser, sign in at iCloud.com, select iCloud Drive, and check the Recently Deleted link in the bottom right-hand corner.
Recover files deleted from iCloud Drive
You can recover files you deleted from iCloud Drive in the last 30 days, whether you deleted them on iCloud.com, your iOS device, your Mac, or your Windows computer. However, you can’t recover files you permanently removed as described in Remove files deleted from iCloud Drive.
- Click Recently Deleted in the bottom-right corner of the iCloud Drive window.
- Click Recover All, or select each file you want to recover, then click Recover.
Look for your recovered files in the folders they were in when you deleted them. For example, if a file was in the Pages folder when you deleted it, look for the recovered file in the Pages folder.
Cheers!
