Medieval village earthworks, fishponds and mill leat at Stonton Wyville is a scheduled ancient monument preserving evidence of medieval settlement and associated water management infrastructure in Leicestershire. The site comprises earthwork remains of the deserted medieval village together with fishponds and a mill leat, which date to the medieval period and reflect the agricultural and economic organisation of the settlement.
