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.

Can someone else recognise the place?

The place is Shortalnds (West Kent).

AOH are the initials of Mr Allan Octavian Hume who has a large number of sheets in h@h. There is even a collectors number, 2672, probably written by his assistant, William Henry Griffin.
