To provide a little more context I think what I really want is something like a checklist in Trello. Where Wifi, Wheelchair access and bookable PCs are a base set of data, and the data collector could continue to add items if needed.

This is not possible with Airtable's forms. While you could use a linked record field, Airtable only lets you link to existing records that are already in the linked table.
Instead of using Airtable’s forms, your best bet would be to use Fillout’s advanced forms for Airtable, because what you’re looking for is already natively built into Fillout.
Fillout is 100% free and offers hundreds of features that Airtable’s native forms don’t offer, including the ability to update Airtable records from a form, display Airtable lookup fields & Airtable rollup fields & Airtable attachments & formulas on forms, dynamically & conditionally filter linked record fields by any values that you would like, perform math or other live calculations on your forms, accept payments on forms, create multi-page forms with conditional paths, create new linked records on a form, display as many fields as you want to see in a linked record selection list (including attachments), connect a single form to dozens of external apps simultaneously, limit the number of linked records that can be chosen, set advanced field validations & limitations, upload an unlimited amount of attachments simultaneously, add CAPTCHAs to your form, add choice matrixes to your forms, direct integration with hundreds of apps like Calendly & Google Maps on your forms, and so much more.
Alternatively, as a 2nd best option after Fillout, Cognito Forms lets your users add unlimited text line items, and then you can use Make’s asvanced integrations to get the form submissions into Airtable.

Nope, you can't dynamically add text inputs to a form. Couldn't we just use a multi line text field for this though? What're you doing to the data afterwards that you need it to be in single fields?

I guess it could be in a text area, I thought it might be easier to add individually but seems that the area would be quicker.
Thanks, Jonno

I would point you to SafetyCulture. Much more powerful for this kind of work and generates a nice rapport after.
u can add lines in the way you want and select if the user should be forced to add a note/picture depending on the answer they give. 😄

Hi there!
This can be easily achieved using our miniExtensions third-party form which integrates seamlessly with Airtable. It allows you to create, select, or modify as many linked records as items you need.
You can link existing records or create new ones as you need them:

Additionally, linked records can be displayed in various layouts, including the Grid view shown below:
