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.

not sure of the location, can anyone read this please?

This taxon is now known as K. macrantha.

Label appears to read "Warkworth" which is Northumberland, not Northampton - labelling error?

Too hasty, once again; see http://herbariaunited.org/specimen/265503/

Just googled and found this

The Jurassic Way long distance footpath runs through the village. It is administered as part of South Northamptonshire district.
