Main period sans-serif 25mm UDCs under Bridgwater

Of the 32 offices under Bridgwater that had main period UDCs issued (there were more than 32 different ones as some places had more than one UDC issued, and many are also known used in multiple colours), I have the following examples.

Blackford's UDC was issued in April 1853.  The example below from 13th May 1853 is the first known example.

Broomfield's UDC was issued in April 1853 and is known used from 1855.  The example below comes from November 1859 and may be the latest known usage.

Cannington's UDC was issued on 22nd May 1846 and was known used in black from November 1846 to May 1850 and in blue from October 1853 to August 1855.  The blue example below is from August 1859 and may be the latest use known.

Enmore's UDC was issued on 22nd May 1846 and is known used from February 1849 to October 1859.  The example below is from January 1852.

Huntspill's UDC was issued on 3rd September 1849 and is known used in black from September 1849 to April 1858, with a single example known in brown from February 1856.  The blurred example below is from July 1855.
