I have tried this through retroreveal but can't confidently identify the cancel on the 2d orange KGV stamp. There's nothing on the back of the cover.

I don't think it' Springwood.  It can't be Riverwood either, as it was only known by this name from 1958. |

Absolutely no idea John Had it for years, possibly from the internet, I do not recall it being sent to me. I do remember collating Postmarks from Aust Post. I keep all on MSWorks Databases (132 Fields 30,000 records)
This one is 5,477 NSW Postmarks.

On reflection, I like it for Sherwood, a small settlement inland from Kempsey.
Thanks all. |

Ninhao,
Thanks for the prompt. I like the cancel for Burwood now.
Funny how time can bring clarity.
