Boxed "No.44" in the Bath Penny Post, 1831
The entire below, written in Chewton Mendip, has a red boxed "No.44" in the Bath Penny Post, going via Old Down to Bath to London. It is likely that the "No.44" was issued under the Bristol Penny Post - there is a gap in the receiving house numbers at No.44 and the Bath-issued numbers don't go that high.
