Stonar is a site of a medieval port located near Sandwich in Kent, England. The site represents an important medieval trading settlement and harbour that served as a significant point of embarkation and commerce during the medieval period. Archaeological evidence and historical records indicate activity at the location from at least the Saxon period through the medieval centuries, with the port functioning as a key node in maritime trade networks connecting Kent with continental Europe. The physical remains are now largely buried or submerged due to changes in coastal geography and the silting of water channels over the centuries, though the site retains considerable archaeological potential.
