N.B. reporting of the edit history is currently fairly unclear and misleading. Most edits made to specimens appear as a pair of 'add' and 'delete' entries, which may not be together in the list. There are also often 'minor' edits, which are made automatically (rather than due to user activity), for example to merge synonym names.

'Crane and Lochlee Rocks / Lochs'[??] A loch is more likely for this species than a rock! Maybe Loch Crane Lanarks NE of Carnwath SO785665, and Loch Lee Angus, or the Glen Esk area of Angus around SO7866 where Loch Lee and Craig Crane are not too far apart; there are other Loch Lee's

Kings Park is Holyrood Park (Wikipedia).

Collectanea for a Flora of Moray (1839) has "Lochlee and Crane Lochs, Inshoch" which suggests Loch Loy and Cran Loch NW of Inshoch Wood OS NH9358.


OS Grid reference NH9358

Thankyou - looks very possible. Brodie has various of these sheets labelled with a series of locations, and only one date, I haven't deduced which to attach to the specimens on the sheet
