Deserted Medieval Village W of St Mary's Church is a deserted medieval village situated in Wales and designated as a scheduled ancient monument under reference MM202. The settlement represents evidence of medieval domestic occupation and habitation patterns in the Welsh countryside, typical of the period of nucleated village settlement that characterised much of medieval Britain. The site's abandonment reflects broader processes of settlement desertion and reorganisation that occurred during the later medieval period, when economic, social, and demographic pressures led to the depopulation of numerous rural communities. Physical traces of the settlement remain visible in the archaeological landscape, providing material evidence for understanding medieval Welsh rural settlement hierarchy and domestic organisation.
