The Kings Gate is a prehistoric earthwork located in Hampshire, England. It consists of a linear defensive structure that forms part of the wider Danebury landscape, where it functioned as a territorial or defensive boundary in the Iron Age. The monument comprises a substantial bank and ditch arrangement characteristic of Iron Age construction and settlement patterns in southern Britain. Its proximity to other contemporary sites in the region indicates its role within a network of defended settlements and land divisions typical of the late prehistoric period.
