Clipston medieval settlement is a deserted medieval village site located in Northamptonshire. The settlement represents a nucleated village of medieval origin, with archaeological and documentary evidence pointing to occupation from at least the medieval period. The site exhibits the characteristic earthwork remains typical of deserted medieval villages, including former property boundaries, house platforms, and street lines that reflect the planned layout of a once-thriving community. Like many Northamptonshire villages, Clipston was likely affected by the enclosure movement and agricultural reorganisation of the post-medieval period, which contributed to its eventual abandonment as a settlement focus.
