Mannings Heath is a village in the Horsham District of West Sussex, England, on the A281 a few miles south-east of the town of Horsham.[1] It lies in the civil parish of Nuthurst.

Mannings Heath has an Anglican church dedicated to The Good Shepherd, built in 1845, a pub, the Dun Horse Inn and golf course (Mannings Heath Golf Club).

The village experienced a period of expansion after 1945, but development of the local area has been sympathetic to the original character of the village.[1] Several 17th-century buildings and a few 18th-century buildings survive.

Notable inhabitants

Notable inhabitants include Norman Tebbit, Baron Tebbit of Chingford (a Cabinet minister in the Thatcher government), and famous television and film actor Peter Vaughan with his actress wife, Lilias Walker.
