Manor House, Sussex

Manor House is the remains of a 13th-century manor house at Cowhurst, Sussex. The manor house was built by Walter de Scotney in around 1250. In 1342 John of Gaunt was granted the Earldom and its lands and he apparently rebuilt or enlarged the manor. The manor house later fell out of use and is described as a ruin by 1854. It is within the council area of Rother (East Sussex).
