Wolfhampcote is a deserted medieval village in Warwickshire, the remains of which are visible as earthworks and former settlement patterns in the landscape. The site comprises evidence of medieval occupation including house platforms, field systems, and property boundaries that indicate a substantial village settlement during the medieval period. The village was depopulated during the post-medieval period, likely through a combination of economic change and enclosure, leaving the archaeological deposits and topographic features that survive today. The earthworks provide valuable evidence for understanding rural settlement patterns and the physical organisation of medieval village life in the Midlands region.
