Great Chart with Singleton is a civil parish on the edge of Ashford in Kent, England, combining the old village of Great Chart with the more modern Singleton housing estate. The area sits amid rolling farmland, small woods and watercourses on the outskirts of the town, and many residents commute into Ashford (and beyond via the High Speed 1 link) while enjoying a semi-rural setting.
Its character is a mix of history and recent suburban growth: Great Chart retains a medieval church and village character with records reaching back centuries, while Singleton reflects late 20th‑century housing and community planning. Local life centres on village halls, schools, parish groups and small businesses, with agriculture and green spaces still important to the parish’s economy and social identity.
