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.

I couldn't read site 'Denfe...?' I couldn't tell if this is possibly W H Coleman's handwriting - he has numerous Carex specimens from Herts May & June, in BON.

On pondering this, I am increasingly convinced by your suggestion, and am editing in (with just slight cautionary note) Additionally, there is a similarity with Andrew Kerr's sheets; 2 from nearby the following month appear to be his eg http://herbariaunited.org/specimen/307921/

Yes, I had noticed that Kerr was in and around that area - about that sort of time. The suggested site is just a possibility / suggestion.
