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.

I couldn't locate a Winside (nor Whinside)

When I looked at the sheet I thought I could see 'urnside'. Google of 'urnside Shrewsbury' suggests 'Burnside Gardens' a modern cul-de-sac (OS SJ485103) above the Rae Brookk, at Meole Brace, only ~2km from the school.

Although I definitely see what you mean, there equally definitely is no B

Yes, it does look like Arnside; there are similar Lake Dist specimens in SHYB from that year eg http://herbariaunited.org/specimen/231809/
