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.

Collector appears to be Watson - compare K and R on both labels - I couldn't locate Abbey Wood

Lesnes Abbey Wood TQ4878 is also known as Abbey Wood and Watson is known to have collected there http://herbariaunited.org/core/forum/viewtopic.php?t=8242&highlight=

W.C.R.Watson is the authority for Rubus diversus, so I don't think the references to Watson needs to have anything to do with who collected this sheet. However, it might be possible to find out from the reports of the Botanical Exchange club.
