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.

Specimen 1 This seemed to have been collected by two unknowns bit hard to believe?

I cannot find St Martin's Rocks on any map but in "From The Banks of Wye; A Poem. In Four Books" (1811) by Robert Bloomfield, I read

And where the mind repose would seek,
A barren, storm-defying peak,
The Little DOWARD, lifted high
His rocky crown of royalty.
Hush! not a whisper! Oars, be still!
Comes that soft sound from yonder hill?
Or is it close at hand, so near
It scarcely strikes the list'ning ear?
E'en so; for down the green bank fell
An ice-cold stream from MARTIN'S WELL,
