Deserted medieval site southwest of Tytherington Bridge is a scheduled monument located in Somerset, England. The site represents settlement activity dating to the medieval period, when this location formed part of the agricultural and domestic landscape of the region. Like many deserted medieval villages and hamlets across England, this site was abandoned during the later medieval period, leaving behind earthwork remains and archaeological deposits that document patterns of medieval occupation and subsequent desertion. The monument's significance lies in its contribution to understanding medieval settlement patterns, land use, and the social and economic factors that led to rural depopulation in this part of Somerset.
