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.

Collector MB? Site Walton Crag?

I wonder if this might be Borrer - many of Townsend's sheets are ex Borrer.

The label is in the hand of Joseph Woods but, unusually, the formula in which the date is given is conventional, not his. The collector is "Mr B" which, I agree, refers to Borrer.
