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.

Could somebody check the place name please, could it be Ilchester?

Hestercombe and Portmans
There is a faded note at the very bottom of the page "WDM was Lady Portman's sec(retar)y until this year, 1924" . The Portmans owned the house and ground until 1944 - see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hestercombe_House
