Street

Street, 2½ miles from Glastonbury, was a receiving house in the Somerton Penny Post from 1806, and in the Glastonbury Penny Post from 1826.  By 1855 the post office came under Bath and then transferred to Bridgwater in 1873.  In 1878 it became a "Sub-Office/Post Town".

Although Street was not under Bridgwater from 1878, the cover below, from Street to Bolton-le-Moors in September 1897, was cancelled by a Bridgwater squared circle.  There is also a "STREET / SOMERSET" single ring handstamp on the reverse.  This would seem to mean that in some regards Street was still under Bridgwater.

The registered envelope below is from Street to Berlin in October 1922, cancelled with "STREET / SOMERSET" single ring cancels.
