Aldingbourne House is an imposing building, built in the Regency style, that can be seen across fields northwards from the A27 between Tangmere & Fontwell. It was once the home of Lady Molyneux Howard and more recently it was a sanatorium, specialising in the care of mentally handicapped young adults (I think). I am not sure what it is used for today, but I think that at least part of it has been converted into apartments. I seem to remember seeing a developers board up alongside the road 2/3 years ago.

I viewed an apartment at Aldingbourne House in the 1990s for my parents who, while it was impressive inside, decided it was too noisy outside because of the close proximity to the A27. I believe it is all private apartments now, and there was another for sale in 2006. On the sale brochure were some historical details, so it might be worth searching estate agents' details for that - sorry, I can't remember which agent it was.
