Lazenby is a deserted medieval village located in North Yorkshire, England. The settlement is documented as a nucleated village that was occupied during the medieval period before being abandoned, leaving behind earthwork remains visible in the landscape. The site preserves evidence of the typical layout of a medieval agricultural community, with the physical traces of former house platforms, field boundaries, and other structural features that characterise deserted village archaeology. Such sites are valuable for understanding rural settlement patterns, land use, and social organisation in medieval England, particularly regarding the processes of village desertion that occurred from the later medieval period onwards.
