Deserted medieval village is a settlement site in Worcestershire that represents the physical remains of a community abandoned during the medieval period. The site survives as earthworks and field features that preserve the plan and layout of former dwellings, streets, and associated agricultural land. Such desertion typically occurred between the thirteenth and sixteenth centuries, often resulting from economic pressures, plague, enclosure, or changes in land use.
