 | | He was born at Totteridge, Hertfordshire, the third and youngest son of William Manning, a West_India merchant, who served as a director and (1812 - 1813) as a governor of the Bank_of_England, and who sat in Parliament for some thirty years, representing in the Tory interest Plympton_Earle, Lymington, Evesham, and Penryn consecutively. |
 | | Manning spent his boyhood mainly at Coombe Bank, Sundridge, Kent, where he had for companions Charles and Christopher_Wordsworth, later bishops of St Andrews and Lincoln respectively. |
 | | Newman's secession in 1845 placed Manning in a position of greater responsibility, as one of the High Church leaders, along with Edward_Bouverie_Pusey, John_Keble and Marriott; but it was with Gladstone and James Hope-Scott that he was at this time most closely associated. |
