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.

Place name very ambiguous Filey/ Folay ?

It's a strange sheet.

I think the date's 5/9/1882 (otherwise Ley was only 10)

There's a related collection from the same site that day:

http://herbariaunited.org/specimen/257032/

which has been read as Islay House, VC102 which if collected by Ley seems extremely improbable as he was in Herefordshire on the 6th.
