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.

Location?

Although much of this is illegible, it does seem to probably say Gloucester Docks - a likely site for this species

I think it may be another of the many 'Monks Meadow' specimens.

Thank you both and I agree it could be either or both; so I think it is safest to leave all this on the message board.
