The Portobello was situated on Bridge Street. This pub is now in residential
use. Behind this building was the Little Coggeshall Brewery, known as the
Gardeners Brewery from 1827, which closed in 1941. |

My parents, Alf and
Anita Berners, took this pub in 1972 until 1980 so I grew up there and went
to school firstly at St Peter’s School, Coggeshall and then Alec Hunter,
Braintree. It was a very popular pub and I have fond memories – particularly
of its friendly ghost! |
