Firstly a free front with a boxed "No.1" Receiving House handstamp from 1821. the front has a framed "TO PAY 1D ONLY", indicating that the free franking parliamentary priviledge did not apply to the local penny post.
Then three examples of Axbridge in the Wells Penny Post - the first two from 1822 and 1824 with both a boxed "No.5" and a straight-line "AXBRIDGE", and the third from 1825 with just the straight line handstamp.
