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 check please?

Aha! The crossed-out name is Tenby S Wales. I looked hard and read the new name as 'Carew S/W'. Carew is near Tenby - and Hayes and Bloxam collected Limonium vulgare there in the same month. Can I just add that Hayes, or Bloxam, is not my favourite botanist (but I'm sure one or both of them had a great holiday)

Many thanks, I really do not understand why these people did not make information clear and understandable, I know that they would never have imagined anything like we are doing, but if they had returned to a specimen in later years, or as many did passed them on to others, clearer would be better.
