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.

Any suggestions for B'hill? In or near Shrewsbury is possible for SHYB, and as a single-word name may be indicated, I discount Bayston Hill

There's a Berghill at OS SJ362305. A tiny place some 25km from Shrewsbury but near the Montgomery/Shropshire Union canal which has a towpath giving access to what was Rednel and West Felton station. However, even as late as 1945, on the Ordnance Survey New Popular Edition 1:63360, (118 - Shrewsbury), Berghill is split into Upper and Lower.
