In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Bathurst like this:
BATHURST, a manor in Warbleton parish, Sussex; 5 miles NNE of Hailsham. It belonged to the family of Bathurst, who were expelled from it in the wars between the houses of York and Lancaster; and it retains vestiges of their castle, which was demolished at the time of their expulsion.
