Historical Notes:-
The earliest recording we have seen of the property is dated 1740 when the site was separated from the Battle Estates. Whether the house was built prior to this date it is not known. However, the house was used during the occupation of the Sussex regiment during the Napoleonic period in the 1790's when the regiment was billeted opposite along the Whatlington Road levels. Later demolished and now where the Oakhurst Road estate is built. There is photographic evidence of a smokery built at the rear of the building, in a painting by artist Francis Grose in 1787 published in the "Bygone Battle" book. The Old part of the house is clearly shown in the painting.
The current vendors renovated the property using reclaimed materials where they could to retain the historical charm.
