Castle Toll is a Saxon burgh and medieval fort located in Kent, England. The site represents an important defensive position from the Saxon period, when such burhs formed part of the organised network of fortified settlements established across southern England, particularly during the reigns of Alfred the Great and his successors in the ninth and tenth centuries. The monument preserves archaeological evidence of medieval fortification, with earthwork remains indicative of its role as a strategic military site. Castle Toll's significance lies in its contribution to understanding Saxon administrative and defensive infrastructure in the southeastern region of England.
