Axbridge

Axbridge had a Fifth Clause Post from Bristol in 1805, then transferred to the Wells Penny Post in 1816.  Here's an example of the boxed "No.5" cancel from 1823.

In 1827 it became part of the newly established Cross Penny Post.  The example below, with a boxed "No.1" cancel, is from 1830.

An "AXBRIDGE" straight line cancel carried on in use until 1849.  The examples above are of the second type (40x4 mm) while the one below is of the third type (36x4 mm).

Finally a single-ring cancel from 1903 on a postcard showing a view of the centre of Axbridge.
