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.

The place name seems to suggest Aspley Heath Buckinghamshire But but does nt seem to match what the county suggests.

I read it as epithymum on ling, Aspley Heath Woods
which I think are found at
OS Grid reference SP936350

There is also an Aspley Heath Warwicks (but no obvious wood of that name)
SP095705
