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.

Can anyone make sense of the locality?

[Roger Horton]

Now a suburb of Liverpool, Old Swan [OS SJ3991] is ~2km south of W[est] Derby [SJ3993] VC59. Adjacent to Knotty Ash!


OS Grid reference SJ3991

Thank you.

Keith's original documentation of the sheet was absolutely correct then. I should have left this alone.
