Warblington, historically part of the Hundred of Bosmere [ [http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/HAM/Warblington/index.html Genuki] ] , is a suburb of Havant, a town in Hampshire, England, a country of the United Kingdom. It is part of the parish of St Thomas à Becket, Warblington and St James, Emsworth [ [http://www.br2811.demon.co.uk/EmsCh/Index2.htm Parish web-site] ] . Pevsner(1967) describes the church of St Thomas as essentially late 12th century and commends the "undisturbed" setting. To the north of the church is the locality’s most distinctive landmark: the tall octagonal turret of the ruined castle(Timmins 2007). Unusually it contains a large secondary school [ [http://www.br2811.demon.co.uk/EmsCh/Index2.htm Latest Inspection report] ] but no primary.

Warblington railway station is on the West Coastway Line.
