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.

St Cyprus is seemingly a common alternate to St Cyrus. No luck in determining the local of "the rock".

A likely site could well be Rock Hall, just along the coast to the East, which seems to have some dramatic features; grid ref is NO 76.
