What I have just tried might be rather ugly and unorthodox, but it 
achieves what I want. As you can see from below, after the final chapter 
I simply created a 'subject' without giving it a title as such. I 
realised I needed the [location=here] to place it below the last item in 
the TOC.

So I have what I want, in the end, but am I missing something that is 
obvious to others but not to me when you say 'Is there something 
stopping you just outputting the line of text after the TOC?' Since the 
TOC is created automatically from heads like chapter, section etc., I 
don't know (other than the solution I came up with below) how to 'just 
output a line of text after the TOC'. I suppose I was imagining a 
\writeafterlist command or something like that🙂

Thanks for you help Duncan, since at least it made me look to the end of 
the document rather than the beginning of it, as I had been doing.

\stopchapter

\startsubject[title={}]

\writebetweenlist[section][location=here]{\blank[2*big] Note: All 
translations throughout the book are my own.}

\stopsubject

\stopbodymatter

\stopdocument
