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.

Distinctive handwriting found on other anonymous Carex sheets around this time, from Midlothian, http://herbariaunited.org/specimen/390410/?image and http://herbariaunited.org/specimen/388620/ I found no Bridgehouse in Midlothian; there is a minor place called Bridgehouse between Whithorn and Sorbie, in Wigtownshire NX4344, and a Bridgehouse Mill at West Linton, Peeblesshire NT1452 - doubtless others too
