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.

This is evidently in the area N of Wisbech, perhaps on both sides of the Norfolk / Cambs border; there is no longer any station, Tydd St Mary is in S Lincs.

A difficult location near changed county boundaries! Tydd Station was at OS TF464180 in VC29 (Cambs) but since boundary changes of 1934 now in southern Lincs. This is north of the North Level Main Drain, directly to the south of which is Fowl Anchor where there was an inn. Both are west of the River Nene Pauper's Cut. The three county point for Cambs/South Lincs/West Norfolk is now in this river just east of Fowl Anchor but before 1934 was ~1km further east near Walpole Marsh.
