Manor Profile
Rumboldswyke, West Sussex· Box and Stockbridge Hundred· 1488 – 1488
Thomas Rogers, who died in January 1488, settled the manors of Rumboldswyke and Holyngarden on his daughter Elizabeth (then aged about 12) on her marriage with William, son of Thomas Essex. After this there seem to be no other references to Holyngarden, of which the site is unknown. The manor was presumably absorbed into the Rumboldswyke estate.
No separate Domesday entry. Not separately identified in the survey.
