iCloud Freeing up space in iCloud?

[Big Stevie]

I use iCloud between my MacBook and iPhone but my iCloud storage is almost full so I'm trying to free up space by downloading some files onto my MacBook which has over 100GB of free space.

When I log into iCloud is says I have 19.4GB of content in Documents...

Yet on my MacBook when I go to Finder > iCloud Drive and right click on the Document folder it says I have just 7.83GB of content..

So where it says 'Documents' in iCloud, I assume that must refer to content that I'm not taking into account?

Keep things simple. Pay for the extra storage.

Think I've found some video files that were making up the difference is size.
