Medieval saltern 1.05km north east of Monkshill Farm is a salt-making installation located on Seasalter Level in Kent, part of a significant cluster of six medieval salterns in this area. The site represents the substantial saltworking industry that developed along the Kent coast during the medieval period, when coastal marshes provided ideal conditions for salt extraction through evaporation. The saltern comprises the physical remains typical of such installations, including evidence of the ponds and structures used in the salt production process. As a scheduled ancient monument, the site is recognised for its contribution to understanding medieval commerce and the exploitation of coastal resources in south-eastern England.
