Previous Lords:
A reputed manor of Hartley was in the 16th century in the possession of Thomas Vachell of Coley. To judge from certain of the place-names it seems to have been formed in part out of lands in the manor of Hartley Battle. The Vachells held land in the parish in the 13th century. The Vachell estate followed the descent of Coley until as late as 1611, but its history after this date is not known.
