Warninglid (historically known as Warninglyth and Warningeld[1]) is a small village in the middle of Sussex, on the B2115 road five and half miles west of Haywards Heath.

The name Warninglid is believed to originate from the Old English Wernan gelad, meaning "Werna's Path".[2]

Half Moon, Warninglid

At the centre of the village is a crossroads, and there sits the Half Moon public house.[3] A nearby village, Handcross, provides the post office and convenience store for the villagers. Over the last quarter century the village has won the Best-Kept Village competition three times.

There is one school serving Warninglid, namely Warninglid Primary School.[4]
