Little Chart is a village and civil parish, situated 4 miles (6.4 km) north-west of Ashford in Kent, South East England.

The secular property that would have had the highest grading of listed building in the parish, Surrenden Park,[5] half in Pluckley, was owned by the Dering family for over 400 years; the family estate covered about four square miles of Kent.

Neither property now exists: Surrenden succumbed to fire in 1952; Calehill was demolished in 1951.

The original village church, dedicated to St Mary the Virgin and the Holy Rood, was wrecked in 1944 by a V-1 flying bomb during World War II;[7] it stood on a site further upstream from the village, near Chart Court.

[11] Australian-born current affairs and sports journalist and broadcaster Jeffrey Thomas owned and lived in the Grade II listed Forstal Farmhouse with his family in the 1970s,[12] where he was instrumental in the formation of the Little Chart Cricket Club in the Kent Village Cricket League.
