A building with a story
Welcome to The Cockpit, the oldest building on Eton High Street, with a rich history. The building dates from around 1440, most likely to have been built by the Dean and Canons of Windsor.
There is a history of candles being made at The Cockpit going back to 1661, when the building was inhabited by the tallow chandler, William West. The tradition continues, but updated, with handmade Soy and Beeswax candles.
