Coleford, Combe St Nicholas

Here are a number of covers from Coleford, Somerset (not to be confused with Coleford Gloucestershire), starting with a cover from 1869 with a "COLEFORD / SOMT" handstamp.

These next two sheets have covers from 1888 to 1910, all with "COLEFORD / SOM" handstamps.
 

Here are examples from Combe St Nicholas, near Chard, with "COMBE ST NICHOLAS" single ring cancels, from 1907 and 1912.
