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.

Search as I might I cannot find this place any ideas?

The nearest place on the 'placename' list is Kymin Hill (near Monmouth); it's above the River Wye, in that part of the County that hops over the river to accommodate an outlier of Monmouth; opposite King Arthur's Cave across the river, and not far from Symonds Yat. Large patches of conifer have been added in since Ley's time.
