Some Ds - Dowlish Wake, Downside Abbey & Dunball

A trio of covers from places starting with D - first a registered letter from Dowlish Wake in August 1972 sent by John Worrall, a source of many similar covers.

The cover below has a commemorative cancel from Downside Abbey in March 1997.  A post office opened in Downside Abby in November 1998 (replacing Statton-on-the-Fosse) and closed in 2003 (I'm looking for an example of a postmark from that period).

The final example is a registered letter from Dunball to Yugoslavia in December 1950, unfortunately with quite poor cancels.
