Probably not truly indigenous in these counties.

Wallis, at p. 218, gives Crag Close near Barwesford as a locality of Cardamine pumila; Bellidis folia alpina. — Dill. Ray Syn, 300; which Smith refers to Arabis stricta of the English Flora, iii. 210, but with a mark of doubt. Gerard's figure, 260, quoted in~Ray's work, according to Smith, belongs to a foreign species, Arabis pumila of Jaquin; Arabis nutans of Willdenow's Species Plantarum, iii. 537. I suspect Turritis glabra must have been the plant gathered by the historian of Northumberland in Crag Close.
