Ring ditch and enclosure 200 yards east of Parsonage Farm is a prehistoric monument situated in Kent. The site comprises a ring ditch, a form of circular earthwork commonly associated with Bronze Age burial practice and settlement activity, accompanied by an adjacent enclosure. Such monuments are characteristic of the later prehistoric period in southern England and serve as evidence of ritual, domestic, or defensive land use during this era. The precise dating and functional interpretation of this particular example would require archaeological investigation, though its classification within the Bronze Age tradition of ring ditch construction is established.
