Overview

History & significance

The Deserted Village at Fulbrook Farm is a site of medieval settlement remains located in Buckinghamshire. The village was abandoned during the medieval period, leaving behind earthwork features that preserve evidence of former habitation patterns, including probable house platforms and field systems characteristic of deserted medieval villages. Such sites represent important archaeological records of rural depopulation and agrarian change in medieval England, documenting the shifts in settlement and land use that occurred across the English countryside during the later medieval centuries. The surviving earthworks at this location constitute a scheduled monument and provide material evidence for understanding medieval village layout, domestic organisation, and the economic forces that led to settlement desertion.
