The
“126 YEOVIL” handstamp is known used from 1789 to 1792, though
could have been in use earlier as the two previous Yeovil handstamps
are only known used in 1778 and 1780 in archives.
The
entire mentions enclosures. Between 1784 and 1796, 4d was
the General Post rate for up to 80 miles, so at triple rate (for two
enclosures) that would be 1/- postage.
