RE: Unwanted new page at end of score

The problem with this issue is that to reproduce the output would require five fairly large .ly files. Four with notes for each movement and  one to create the instrument score.
 
Getting page turns in appropriate places has seemed to be akin to herding cats. You get on turn as you want and others in other movements are affected.
 
A neat setting of
page-breaking = #ly:page-turn-breaking
does not produce player friendly page turns - so I then add either \pageBreak or \pageTurn where I want the page turn. But each addition produces unwanted changes elsewhere in the files. The final problem was the placing on one line on the last page when there seems to be adequate room on the previous page.
 
I didn't think you would thank me for including the whole set of files even though the performance is predicated on the them.
 
Does pageTurn really work with doublesided output or how can I get all these cats into the bag?

I cannot suppress a page break which looks unnecessary - what am I doing wrong?.

I have included the example in the attached file which I hope does not contain too much unnecessary data.

I would welcome helpful advice on presenting such information to the list.

Out of curiosity, I decided to see what was in the file, yeah, I'm avoiding work I should be doing…
I'd say this looks like a debug report, for some reason sent as an .xml file created by microsoft word so as to make it readable across systems. It even includes an image of what the output is. 
The code included will not compile as-is. If you include code, even in an attached file, please make sure that it can compile on its own, independent of any other settings. Ideally, the code would contain just enough information to make the problem apparent. This goes under the heading, Creating Tiny Examples. (Note the bit that says you should include which version you're using.) 
In this case, you would need a file that includes enough information to show that the music is on two pages. Or at the very least, what overrides you've set to try and reduce the number of pages. 
The best I can make of this is this:
\paper {
annotate-spacing = ##t
two-sided = ##t
top-margin = 10\mm
bottom-margin = 10\mm 
inner-margin = 20 \mm
outer-margin = 15 \mm
binding-offset = 5 \mm
first-page-number = #1
blank-after-score-page-force = #100 % no change in output whatever value is specified here
page-breaking = #ly:page-turn-breaking 
ragged-bottom = ##t 
indent = 5\mm
print-page-number = ##t
print-first-page-number = ##f
oddHeaderMarkup = \markup \null
evenHeaderMarkup = \markup \null
oddFooterMarkup = \markup {
\fill-line {
\null \fontsize #2 \fromproperty #'header:mycustomtext 
\on-the-fly #print-page-number-check-first
\fontsize #2 \fromproperty #'page:page-number-string
} % end of fill line 
} % end of markup block
evenFooterMarkup = \oddFooterMarkup
} % end of paper block

\score {
   {
      \mark \default d''8 \f [ bes'8 bes'8 bes'8 ] c''8 [ bes'8 d''8 bes'8 ] | % 236
      ees''8 [ g''8 ees''8 c''8 ] d''8 [ c''8 e''8 c''8 ] | % 237
      f''8 [ c''8 a''8 f''8 ] g''8 [ f''8 a''8 f''8 ] | % 238
      bes''8 [ f''8 bes''8 f''8 ] c''8 [ f''8 d''8 f''8 ] | % 239
      ees''4 r4 r2 | % 240
      f''2 \p ( e''4 ees''4 ) | % 241
      d''4 r4 r2 | % 242
      r8 f''8 [ f''8 f''8 ] f''8 [ ees''8 d''8 c''8 ] | % 243
      bes''8 r4. r2 | % 244
      f'2 ( e'4 ees'4 | % 245
      d'4 ) r4 r2 | % 246
      r8 f''8 [ f''8 f''8 ] f''8 [ ees''8 d''8 c''8 ] | % 247
      bes'4 r4 r2 | % 248
      f''2 ( e''4 ees''4 ) | % 249
      d''4 r4 r2 | % 250
      d''2 ( des''4 c''4 ) | % 251
      bes'4 r4 r2 | % 252
      r8 f''8 \pp [ f''8 f''8 ] g''8 [ f''8 a''8 f''8 ] | % 253
      bes''4 r4 r2 \bar "|."
   }
}

I don't know if this truly is what you were hoping to show, but this is the best I could make of it.
