At one time when I edited many Bolton Museum specimens, numerous P B Mason labels appeared to me to be inscribed 'Bruton' ie Somerset; and only recently have I read one or two as 'Burton' ie Burton on Trent, Staffs. I now think the latter is correct, and I now see Mason lived there! He has many other specimens from across Staffs, but only 1 or 2 others from Somerset. Also his friend Harris has many specimens from Burton on Trent.

I think I need to re-edit these sheets as Burton on Trent - anyone else agree / disagree?
