Is this possible from docker-compose
- or do I have identify the volumes location and delete them?
I can only find functionality to delete ALL the volumes associated with the docker-compose.yaml config file.

Compose can only remove all volumes defined in a yml file, or none
$ docker-compose down -v
If you don't want to investigate which volumes are used for the current compose file and remove them with docker volume rm X
, then create a cutdown compose file that only lists the volumes you want to remove
docker-compose.yml
version: "2.1"
volumes:
one:
two:
three:
docker-compose-cleanup.yml
version: "2.1"
volumes:
two:
Then you can act on different sets depending on the compose file
$ docker-compose up
Creating volume "composevolumes_three" with default driver
Creating volume "composevolumes_two" with default driver
Creating volume "composevolumes_one" with default driver
Attaching to
$ docker-compose -f docker-compose-cleanup.yml down -v
Removing volume composevolumes_two
