Sometimes Word can take a while to catch up with changes within its
documents, try scrolling up a page or two and scroll down allows the refresh
to occur. Does this cure your problem?
Maybe try, delete the page break, select the text you want at the top of
your new page and apply "Page break before" from the Format, Paragraph, Line
and Page Break tab. Does this cure your problem?
Hope this helps

I have a document (Word 2003) where the last page has been made section 2 by
inserting a section break (new page) on te previous page.

As I want a continuous document I deleted the section break and inserted a
page break as I still wanted the content of the last page on a separate page.

The first letter of the first word on the final page shows as section 1 but
everything past that first letter shows as section 2, as if there's an
invisible section break between the first and second letter of the first word
on the page.

How do get rid of this?
