Wed 20 May 1818
From John R Denyer
To J S Salt
London
Repairs completed without causing an hours detention to any vessel having taken advantage of neap tides in Severn for doing it. Intend stopping summit Level to examine & repair between Bridge No XXVI & the stopgate at the engine as reason to believe worst part of summit Level will require at least fortnight but hope little or no delay will be experienced by the boats.
