==History==
The manor of Warbleton was held by the Levett family of Sussex for several centuries. The same family held Salehurst, and had earlier held Firle, Catsfield, Hollington and other manors across Sussex.〔(Sussex Archaeological Collections, Sussex Archaeological Society, Farncombe & Co., Lewes, 1894 )〕 The family is of Anglo-Norman descent, and members of the family were vicars, ironmasters, and landowners. The Levetts of Salehurst, Warbleton and Fittleworth owned Bodiam Castle and sold it to Nicholas Tufton, 1st Earl of Thanet.〔(Valuation of Bodiam Castle and manor and of Broomham manor preparatory to its purchase by Sir Nicholas Tufton from John Levett, East Sussex Record Office, The National Archives, nationalarchives.gov.uk )〕 Some of the Levett family's lands were forfeited due to the bankruptcy of an early heir. Other family lands were carried by marriage into the families of Eversfield, Gildredge, Chaloner, Ashburnham, Pope and other prominent Sussex and Kent families.
