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.

I can't find a Brampton Burrows in Devon so the location is rather suspect

Dear Quentin,

Braunton Burrows is in North Devon. I wonder if that's what the collector intended.

Kind regards,

Leander
