Over Chalford medieval settlement is a deserted medieval village located in Oxfordshire. The settlement represents typical medieval agricultural land use and settlement patterns characteristic of the English Midlands and the surrounding region during the medieval period. Archaeological survey and documentary evidence indicate occupation and habitation across the medieval centuries, with the site eventually becoming depopulated as part of the wider processes of settlement shift and enclosure that affected many English villages from the late medieval period onwards. The physical remains visible today consist of earthworks and surface features indicative of former domestic and agricultural occupation.
