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.

Oakley Hill? There's an Oakley near Chinnor, SP7400 but I can't see any hill to speak of on the map

Using the OS Getamap, zooming down to the 1:25K scale, there is an Oakley Hill marked just across the chalk pits from Oakley (in SU7599), and it is a hill judging from the closely spaced contours.
