Monks Horton

Monks Horton is a small civil parish in the Shepway District of Kent, England. It is located 3 miles (5 km) north of Hythe. Within the civil parish are the hamlets of Horton and Broad Street. The parish is governed by a parish meeting, rather than a parish council, because of its small size. The name comes from the fact that a medieval priory was built here[1]

The population of the parish in 2001 was 95.[2]
