This item of Postage Due from Bath is in my view a post office error, and may not have been collected.
The newspaper below was franked with ½d, but had a 1d postage due cachet applied at Bath because it was over 2oz. I think the clerk was treating the newspaper as printed matter which was ½d for up to 2oz and 1d for 2-4oz. There is no indication that the 1d postage due was collected at Bridgwater.
