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.

There's a Craig Mhor at NN389361 NE of Tyndrum and another at NN692497 (according to the Munro book, tho the OSmap calls the same spot Meall na Aighean) In the same ridge there is a top called Carn Mairg [NN684513] and I wonder whether Ewing got the two names conflated? There isn't a Munro in the area called Carn M(h)or; The OS Creag Mhor [NN712489] is only just high enough at 820m.
