Cooks Yard is a boat building business established by Walter Cook in 1894 on the bank of the River Blackwater at Maldon, Essex, England. Originally known as Walter Cook and Son and specialising in the building of Thames sailing barges, it operated until the 1980s - at which time, it was the last remaining barge yard in Britain.
In 1999, Topsail Charters took on the lease of the yard and refurbished it. They restored boat building and barge repair to the site and maintain the last set of original barge repair blocks on the east coast of England.
