Wells Penny Post - further recent acquisitions

Next we come to a boxed "No.6" receiving house cancel from Croscombe dated June 1837.

Then a piece with a framed "Wells.S. / P.yP." handstamp from 1826.  Any suggestions on how the postal charge was made up gratefully received.

A boxed "No.15" in the Wells Penny Post from March 1826 is from Ston Easton.  the entire would have gone via Old Down which from 1823 to 1826 had the boxed "No.15" handstamp, from the Bristol Penny Post but used in the Wells Penny Post.

And finally just to stay on the Wells theme, a  four bar vertical oval duplex from May 1883.
