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.

Pontneddfechan SN80 is probably the best approximation to Ley's site. You could spend a week or two exploring scenic sites in that area.

I neglected to state that the label reads Dyffryn Nedd (valley of River Neath). I had heard of the river & explored the River Mellte upstream - but not heard of Pont-nedd etc!
