Samuel Norton apparently died in Westhampnett Workhouse in 1823

"The Old Workhouse, a little way west of the church, formerly Westhampnett Place, a house of Elizabethan origin but rebuilt by Sir Hutchins Williams c. 1720, (fn. 3) was completely burnt down on 3 November 1899. All that remains of age on the site are some garden walls of thin bricks, some set herring-bone-wise, with flint foundations, and one fragment of a house-wall containing a doorway in weather-worn condition. It has tapering half-round side pilasters with moulded capitals and bases and a moulded pediment, all of 16th-century brickwork. It now opens into a roofless outbuilding and near by is a small modern house in which some old bricks are reused."
