Monks Horton is a small, rural civil parish in the district of Folkestone and Hythe in Kent, England. It occupies quiet agricultural countryside inland from the south‑east Kent coast, with a tiny population, scattered farms, a parish church and a handful of historic houses that reflect the area’s long settlement.
The community is largely agricultural and residential, with few services of its own so people tend to look to nearby towns such as Folkestone and Hythe for shops and transport; its peaceful lanes and proximity to coastal and low‑lying landscapes make it a modest but attractive spot for walkers and anyone after a rural escape in south‑east Kent.
