Waldron is a small village in the midst of Sussex, two an a half miles west of Heathfield.

The parish church in th middle of the village, All Saints, is of the 12th-century.[1]

Foxhunt Manor at Waldron dates from 1898. It was built by Joseph Lucas Junior, and later sold to the Oakshott family. In 1935 the estate was purchased by a Roman Catholic institution, the Xaverian Brothers, who ran it as a preparatory boarding school. The school closed in 1959 and the manor was sold to the Order of The Visitation.[2]
