Chart Sutton is a small village and civil parish in the borough of Maidstone in Kent, England, set in gently rolling agricultural countryside between Maidstone and Ashford and close to the village of Sutton Valence. The landscape is typically Kentish, with orchards and farmland giving the area a rural character while keeping it within commuting distance of Maidstone and London.
Historically the parish grew from farming - particularly hops and fruit - and today combines working farms with residents who commute to nearby towns. The village retains a compact centre of period cottages, a parish church and a village hall, and supports an active local community with clubs and annual events, making it a quiet base for exploring the surrounding Kent countryside and market towns.
