Thanks, my guess is you have some string with a read-only property in
eshell history (probably introduced by copying from another buffer), and
this is tripping up eshell-write-history.

Can you post the result of

    M-x pp-eval-expression RET eshell-history-ring RET

If my guess is correct there should be some strings of the form

    #("some command" 0 11 (read-only t))
