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.

Date could be wrong. Name on label W Jossiden?

[Tom Humphrey]

I think the collector is William Tresidder.

Which would make the date likely to be early 20th century (Tresidder was active between 1909 and 1920).

I can't read the place name (probably begins 'Tre' but in Cornwall that doesn't narrow things down )

[Chris Liffen]

Might it read Trelowarren ?

ps W Tresidder was Headmaster at a school at Perranporth, then Goonhavern
