Not to be confused with Barnhorn Manor to the west. For many years this building was known as Lower Barnhorn and is marked as such on early OS maps. The manor of Barnhorn is ancient its boundaries having been laid out by a charter in 772 and for much of the medieval period its owners were Battle Abbey. This does appear to be the site of the medieval manor which was moved here sometime in the 13th century and a settlement constructed nearby to provide labour for reclaiming and farming the nearby marshes.
