Early Langport, Somerton and Martock handstamps

Here are a couple of early handstamps, the first from Langport via Somerton to London in 1799.  The London receiving date stamp has a code "G" above it.

The second entire comes from Martock to London in 1796.  It is a very early example of the Martock handstamp, the previous earliest example recorded was in 1812.
