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.

Cellwen again - various sites on the upper Tawe are called Cellwen by Ley,this one seems to me to be at SN845205. Various have been edited as Dyffryn Cellwen, which is to the south, isn't on the Tawe, and is in Glamorgan; despite Ley's labels having the characteristic B of Breconshire. Nant Byfre on some of them is at SN855165 adjacent to Glyntawe and very near Nant-y-llyn; and Callwen of the picklist is located there as its map link shows, though not named on the map. I thought we had previously located Cellwen of Ley's sheets, but cannot now seem to find it either among specimens, or on the map, or on the interweb ... perhaps they've been edited as Glyntawe? Glyntawe may even be the best name for editing all Ley's specimens labelled Cellwen?

'St John's Church, Callwen, Glyntawe, Breconshire ... the peaceful hamlet of Callwen, near Pen y Cae, at the foot of the Brecon Beacons' (http://www.jlb2011.co.uk/walespic/churches/callwen1.htm) and
'St John's Callwen, is on the main Brecon Road (A 4067), opposite the lower parts of the Dan-yr-Ogof Caves complex (Shire Horse farm etc), and nearby to the Tafarn-y-Garreg public house' (http://www.ystradgynlais-wargraves.co.uk/st-johns-callwen.html) I found this to be at SN849167 on the map
