West Sussex Record Office has a list of 784 documents about or relating to Tangmere on the online catalogue! This is a very small selection of the most interesting archives. For maps, see article – I have not repeated the map information here. I have excluded the Airfield, which has as many documents again.

Property, and Tangmere Manor
Tangmere has a rich seam of archives for its past, showing how the land was farmed and under whose authority. The archives at the record office
come from different places, but together show a comprehensive picture.
During the time Tangmere was part of the Goodwood estate (in 1765,
Charles, Duke of Richmond had purchased the Halnaker estate off Sir
Thomas Acland, after the death of Mary Morley, Countess Dowager of
Derby) record-keeping intensified, and this table only shows a small
part of the records held by Tangmere. If you want to research a
particular property, one of the best ways to start (besides the
survey volumes mentioned under Maps on this website) is to look under
Tangmere in the index of Volume 1 of the Goodwood hard copy
catalogues. Over fifty plots are given, besides the common fields
and the manor itself. As a consequence this table only shows the
documents for the whole manor.
