Hartley Mauditt is a medieval settlement located in Hampshire, England, comprising the deserted village of Hartley and the nearby settlement of Mauditt. The site represents a typical example of nucleated medieval settlement organisation, with evidence of domestic occupation dating from the medieval period onwards.
