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.

Beeby states East Sussex, but he collected 14/10/1883 at Copthorn, Three Bridges,(West Sussex) and Hedge Court (Surrey) so surely this is Wakeham's Green Farm in West Sussex not Wakeham's Farm, East Sussex TQ874126 some 50km away.

If you put TQ304380 into the GR to VC Converter it comes out as East Sussex.
