Error. In a copy of Smith's Flora Britannica in the Linnean Society, 

 Winch has written a note saying that Mr. J. Woods found it in meadows 

 above Maidenhead. This is certainly a mistake ; Mr. Winch probably 

 appended the record by a slip of the pen to G. sylvaticum instead of to 

 G. jymtense. 



The plant is only native in the northern counties.]
