| Title | Letter from Isambard Kingdom Brunel to E. Burstal |
| Description | The letter explains that, when the application was made to moor the Great Eastern in her current position, it was with the expectation that the ship would be completed immediately but that the completion of the ship is expected imminently so the ship needs to stay where she is moored. The letter requests the continued help of the conservators of the River Thames and also mentions that Burstal's letter has been sent on to Captain Harrison to deal with. |
