Haselbech is a deserted medieval village site located in Northamptonshire. The settlement appears to have been progressively abandoned during the later medieval period, with earthworks surviving that indicate a nucleated village layout typical of the East Midlands. Archaeological evidence and documentary records suggest occupation from at least the Anglo-Saxon period through the medieval centuries, with the final desertion likely connected to enclosure movements and economic changes of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. The surviving earthworks preserve the ground plan of the former settlement, including house platforms, roads, and field boundaries, providing significant evidence for understanding medieval village organisation and the processes of settlement abandonment in this region.
