Letter, 1895 July 19 : Lechlade to Sir.

Letter from William Morris to an unknown member of the board of the Thames Conservancy, discussing the rebuilding of the Lock-keeper's Cottage at Eaton Weir. Morris urges the Conservancy to use local stone and a slate roof when rebuilding. This letter is likely a draft in Morris' hand, and a fair copy (probably written out by Sydney Cockerell) was sent to the Conservancy. At the time of this letter, the secretary of the Thames Conservancy was James H. Gough.
