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.

location anyone? is it Saltaire?

[Chris Liffen]

Saltaire looks likely SE135375. William West (senior) was based in Bradford, and collected many specimens in and around that area.
