Electoral Rolls for Cattistock, Dorset for period 1960-1974

Electoral Rolls for Cattistock Dorset for period 1960-1974.

Are any of these available for a look-up please?

When I visited my aunt, a retired teacher, in 1960 she was living at West End, Cattistock village with a woman friend before dying in Bath in 1974.

I have found her in Belsize Park,North London in the 1930's and once in 1948 but have failed to find her on the 1939 Register.

Anything to fill the gaps will be valued, Thank you.

Dorothy Mary Clare Anstruther
1898–1974
BIRTH 21 AUG 1898 • PANCRAS London, England
DEATH 23 FEB 1974 • 13 Milsom Street, BATH Somerset, England

Pauline,
Many thanks. 
Spalding sounds interesting! Does it give her occupation in 1939?
I have now tried many variations and wildcards but still fail to find her in Spalding or anywhere else.

Pauline,
many thanks for your persevering.
Searching lessons learnt when one letter in the surname [Au rather than An] transcribing error can make all the difference.
Also, I should try search by birthdate only. 
The occupation, LCC Teacher confirms my memory of her severe personality!
