Thank you frabjous,

Our comments must have crossed - your suggestion works exactly.

Thank you gmedina!

I answered my own question about adding the list of sheets entry to the table of contents, using \addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{List of Sheets}

\documentclass{book}

\newcounter{sheet}
\newcommand\listsheetname{List of Sheets ...

Hi gmedina,

I'll post a MWE of my solution for anyone who finds this in the future, just as soon as I tidy it up.

Thanks again,

Alastair.

I've attached a small picture illustrating the effect I'm after.
