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.

discrepancy with VC and location

[oldnick]

Looking on Streetmap gives 'Colt Park Wood' at:
SE065985, between Grinton and Marrick, in Swaledale due west of Richmond (VC 65 I think),
and at SD775775, S of Ribblehead Station,
The latter being that described by Lousley in 'Wild Flowers of Chalk & Limestone' as THE Colt Park Wood - 'one of the most remarkable and uncanny woods in Britain'
Ingleton is to the west of the latter at SD695735 being the nearest town
Apologies if that's what you knew already!
