Correspondence, 1821-24 (4)
Notes
Curator's Note:-
Amongst the drawings for the New Law Courts the following items of correspondence are enclosed. They have been included here as their association with the former is historic. Where possible, the surviving drawings to which they relate have been identified.
There is considerably more material relating to the Law Courts within the Soane Archives proper, in particular Soane’s Notebooks covering the coterminous period and two volumes of correspondence specifically connected to the project.
