On closer inspection I had very uneven wear on the old pads, possibly a stuck piston?
Bike was new in late October, can't decide if it was a set up issue or if a piston seized over Christmas when the bike was sat for a couple of weeks. I will probably just resolve myself rather than involve the shop, but thoughts would be welcome.
I have never seen a pad in that shape. looks like a faulty pad to me and that you lost your compound. I bet your rotor is fucked. If it's not, I'm mystified.

Interesting you say that as the compound "fell off" the other pad yesterday whilst I was investigating. I think the rotor is ok as it was immediately obvious whilst riding that something was wrong with the pad (i.e no more compound) and I was able to get home on the rear brake alone.
Worth saying that the prospect of pad compound spontaneously falling off a cargo bike with child on the hills of Sheffield is somewhat terrifying.

Thanks for the brake pads advice.
