History Coggeshall Iron Foundry, Bridge Street was founded in 1816 and closed in about 1887. It is the only standing example of a nineteenth century small iron foundry in Essex.

The building is partly brick-built, timber-framed and weather-boarded but little of the interior has survived. Later the building was used by C & H Warren who were carriage builders.

A watercourse runs beneath the building and was perhaps once used to drive machinery, its supply was drawn from Robins Brook and the leet still runs alongside.
