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.

Site 'Cairn Chreag' or similar? Hanbury collected at this time from Inverness-shire, Abedeenshire, and Angus

Might it be Cam Chreag ?

Hanbury has another specimen this date (386164) from Falls of Garachary, NN9499, (= Garachary Falls, or Falls of Dee) which are at an elevation of over 1000m on Cairn Toul. Perhaps this location is the adjacent summit Carn na Criche NN9398.
