The deserted village site of South Cadeby is a medieval settlement in Lincolnshire that was abandoned during the period of village depopulation characteristic of late medieval England. The site preserves earthwork remains including house platforms, field systems, and other structural features that reflect the layout and agricultural organisation of the medieval community. South Cadeby forms part of the broader pattern of Midland villages that were depopulated in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, often in association with the enclosure of land for pastoral farming. The surviving earthworks provide archaeological evidence of settlement patterns and domestic life in medieval rural England.
