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.

Though St Ives and Worle Hill labels bear Woods's monogram the dates are not written in Woods's usual format.

I have also seen monogrammed labels written in a different hand.

[mossysal]

I have re-written the date in Woods' usual format and find there is now a sheet of his from Cornwall in that month so have gone with St Ives, Cornwall.

I agree the Worle Hill label is different in style but e.g. compare the W of Worle with that of Woods' own signature?
