Hi Nancy
After having located the "Graham Clark (graham)" member folder in Dropbox.com when I hover over the folder a Share button does not appear plus when I select the button with the three dots on it a small menu appears but the menu does not contain an option to delete the folder (see my screenshot below).

Hi Graham C.10, this is a personal folder on a Dropbox Business team, which is permanent and can't be deleted or shared directly.
It is separate from the team space, which are the team folders you see beneath it with the building icon on them.

It's also possible that this MUSIC folder is not owned by your team and is actually a team folder from another team that has been shared with you. That is why it is in your team member folder and not in the team space. You can check who the owner is by clicking on the 3 dots and selecting 'Manage permissions'.
