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.

No Vallets wood that I can trace around Lyonshall - any ideas?

What about
OS Grid reference SO436326

Yep the name does fit - amended. But I dread to think what the 30km journey back from Lyonshall, presumably via Hereford and on horseback, would have been like then (Unless there was a rail link better than SW trains'): He must have been a remarkable chap to then go for a further collecting foray!
