The Toll-booth at Coggeshall Gate.
An amazing survival from Coggeshall's past, this little building tucked up against the Toll House is almost certainly the booth where the gate-keeper sat, the tolls were collected and recorded into the account book. The tall white post just to the left of the building is probably the last vestige of the gate itself and may have supported the small side gate which was wide enough for people and horses to pass through. The gates themselves had been taken down in 1863 and the posts in 1864.
