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 wonder if this is really Haddington (ie as on drop-down list), although the writing is pretty clear

There's a reference to a collection by Syme from 'Guillen Ponds', Haddington in The J. of Bot. British and Foreign vol. 28, see www.archive.org/stream/journalofbotanyb28trim/journalofbotanyb28trim_djvu.txt

I suspect the modern version is Gullane (there are various genealogical websites that seem to regard surnames Gullen and Guillen from Haddington as interchangeable.
