description: Originally called Highden. Large L-shaped mansion. According to Dallaway's History of West Sussex the Goring family built a house here in the late C17, but the exterior of the present building appears about a century later, though it was renovated in 1838. Extra storey added when the house was converted into a School about 30 years ago. Originally the house consisted of 2 storeys & a basement which was above ground level on the east side owing to the slope of the ground. Nine windows facing south,originally 7 windows facing east, to which 5 window bays have been added by the School. Red brick & grey headers alternately. Long & short stone quoins. Stringcourse above ground floor. Modillion cornice above first floor. Pantile roof. Windows with segmental heads, keystones over & glazing bars intact. The south front has s stone porch, the east front long & short quoins flanking the centre portion of 3 window bays, also a tablet above the ground floor recording that the house was renovated in 1838. Modern School additions to the north-east & north-west, not of special interest.
