The Percy family acquired another manor.

The Manor of Petworth in Sussex was bequeathed by King Henry I to his first wife Queen Adeliza. She then presented it to her brother Joscelyn de Louvain, whose children took the name of Percy when he married Lady Agnes de Percy the heiress of the ancient Percy family. This lady was the great – granddaughter of William de Percy (Algers-nons) who was rewarded after the conquest with great estates in Yorkshire, Lincolnshire and other counties. So it was in 1150 that the Percy connection with Petworth began.

Petworth House in the parish of Petworth, West Sussex, England, is a late 17th-century Grade I listed country house, rebuilt in 1688 by Charles Seymour, 6th Duke of Somerset, and altered in the 1870s to the design of the architect Anthony Salvin.[2] It contains intricate wood-carvings by Grinling Gibbons (d.1721). It is the manor house of the manor of Petworth. For centuries it was the southern home for the Percy family, Earls of Northumberland.

Residences connected to the Percy family include:

Alnwick Castle

Northumberland House

Petworth House

Syon House

Warkworth Castle
