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.

"Winton [?] Camb WWN" - but did Newbould himself write that label or is it a transcription by Frederick Townsend?

Looking at Flora of Cambridgeshire http://mnlg.com/gc/species1/l/lat_aph.html leads me to believe that 'Winton' is an error for [Cherry] Hinton.

Yes I also checked other records for this especially from Cambs and Cherry Hinton is more likely, especially if as you suggest it was copied from a different original.
