Covers and postal matters before 1840.

Post by lkfman »

Please can anyone help me locate an inexpensive list of London Receiving Houses?

Depends how much detail you're looking for? AFAIK Collect British Postmarks has a list, as does volume 3 of the the old County Catalogue (which is probably where CBP got its list from, actually).

Those probably don't cover subtleties like two receiving houses in the same street at different times, though. The Feldman two-volume book is of course the gold standard for this, but that is expensive!
