Deserted village of Stretton Baskerville is a medieval settlement site located in Warwickshire that was abandoned, likely during the post-medieval period. The village represents the physical remains of a once-established community, with archaeological evidence of former occupation preserved in the landscape. The site contains earthwork features typical of deserted medieval villages, including former tofts and crofts that mark the positions of former dwellings and associated land divisions. The desertion of such settlements across England reflected broader economic and social changes, particularly the consolidation of land holdings and shifts in agricultural practice during the late medieval and early modern centuries.
