I take 'Charlston' to be Charleston, TQ525005. I find this label confusing since Lousley's other current h@h specimen of that date is from Middx; while 12 months earlier Lousley has a Wallace specimen from Pevensey Castle. No other specimens seem to relate.

Lousley has a very similar sheet dated 27/8/1933 which confirms the site is at TQ5200, http://herbariaunited.org/specimen/366879/

I wonder if Lousley met Vanessa Bell, Duncan Grant, and the Bloomsbury Set who were living at Charleston House at the time?
