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.

User comments about this sheet

Wyton (Cambs) is on the R. Ouse. It is more likely that "Wyton" is a transcription error for Milverton (M'ton) on the R. Avon and the home of Baker's colleague Henry Bromwich.

Could this not be Myton?
OS Grid reference SP301651

rather than Milverton.

It is perhaps a quibble but there are plenty of Large Baker sheets from Myton.

[David Price]

Yes, Myton much more likely.
