A place where cords and ropes are made; a rope-making workshop or factory.
From cord plus the locative suffix -ery meaning 'place where something is done,' similar to bakery or brewery. This follows a standard English pattern for workplace names.
Corderies were often built near rivers because twisting rope required long open spaces and water was needed for treating and conditioning fibers—you can sometimes spot their locations today in old town layouts.
