A few Offices under Bath

Here are a few Offices under Bath, starting with Maiden Bradley in Wiltshire.  The postcard has a "MAIDEN BRADLEY / BATH" cancel dated July 1918.

Next is a skeleton from Marston Magna, Bath - the date is unclear apart from the year (1912) but the skeleton handstamp is only known used between 25th and 26th December 1912.

Two cancels from Oakhill, Bath from 1910 and 1918, the second asking "Sending for cider tomorrow - could you sweeten it and charge me the cost as I am run quite out".

This next cancel is for "WELLOW / SOM" while the office came under Bath.  The handstamp has no year in it and does not appear to have space for one.

Finally a mourning envelope from Weston, Bath.  This is the Weston 3 miles north-west of Bath, not to be confused with Weston-super-Mare.
