Any ideas about how we can take this page forward would be greatly appreciated
: Good work so far, and good ideas for new sections. I think what the article's currently missing most of all is information on modern Coggeshall. The History section obviously needs to be split up, there's stuff in there that can form the beginning of the sections on the abbey and industry. I'm away from home at the moment and don't have access to my books on Coggeshall, or Coggeshall museam's collection, but I'll help where I can. AGGoH 09:10, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
