Bristol Penny Post - Paulton (or Pensford), Templecloud

Pensford became receiving house No.14 from 1827 (replacing Templecloud which became No.15).  It appears that there were two handstamps in use, a smaller one at Pensford and a larger one at Paulton.

This entire is undated (apart from an unhelpful "Wednesday 10th") and was written from Sutton Court, near Bishop's Stowey which is six miles from Paulton and three miles from Pensford.  Based on the handstamp it appears that this entire was posted in Paulton.

This entire was written in Clutton, one mile north of Templecloud, in June 1839.  Templecloud had the boxed "No.15" handstamp from 1830 (having previously had the boxed "No.14" handstamp).
