Hi snowdrop
Here is a link for Foxhunt Green near Waldron on multimap. I believe the manor is here.

It is marked on my road atlas of Sussex as a Convent and I know I have passed it on the road. Whether it was a convent in the 40s I am not sure though.

It seems from this website and others I found on googling that during the war it was a prep boarding school.

Glad to help. It's in a beautiful spot, a large gated entrance as you pass on the lane, you turn a sharp corner and there is a farm with a pond and a letter box and that is it. I seem to remember wandering geese too.
