If it's not a manual page break, then you can't select and delete it. In
that case, read on to find why Word is inserting a soft page break.

I can't discover why Word is inserting a page break.

If the style had "page break before", then surely every paragraph would that
style would be on a separate page, but they are all on page 2.

There is a title and a short "block text" on page 1, then a lot of empty
space, and the heading 1 is on page 2. The document has one section.
 
Individual paragraphs may be formatted as "Page break before" even when this
is not defined in the style.
