Some Taunton undelivered or postage due items

Here are a few Taunton undelivered or postage due items starting with one from 1879 from Bridgwater to Nettlecombe Court with a large blue "Unknown" written on the front.  The letter went back to the Returned Letter Branch in Bristol.

The letter below went from Porlock via Taunton to Bath in September 1881 and ended up with a manuscript "Unknown" having had twenty postmen's initials on the reverse.

The two items below both also failed to be delivered in September 1882, the first being deceased and the second marked "Address not known".

Next is an uprated newspaper wrapper from Chard to Minehead in December 1893 being redirected to London and receiving a 1d redirection charge at Taunton.

Finally here are a couple of postcards sent without stamps in 1905 and receiving a 1d postage due mark at Taunton.
