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.

For info: Lillesden School for Girls occupies what used to be the Lillesden Estate Mansion, built at the estate (south of Hawkhurst) in 1855 by the banker Edward Loyd, who moved there after marrying. The house and estate remained in the family until just after the First World War, when it was then sold and eventually became the Bedgebury Girls Public School. Its definetly in Kent, by 500m, now - presumably was Sussex then.

The nearest 'map-name' (for want of a better term), "Liliesden near Hawkhurst", is without doubt in Kent but the collector states that the plant was growing in [East] Sussex; the vc boundary is very close at hand, as you say.

What is the significance of the tag "mid perthshire"?

[Mike d'Apice]

that's curious - not sure how to add a tag had I wanted to do so, so no idea how I managed to generate this one (Assuming I did)! Know of no Perthshire connection so deleted it.
