Remains of the Medieval Settlement of East Wykeham is a deserted medieval village site located in Lincolnshire. The settlement dates to the medieval period and represents one of numerous rural communities that were abandoned or significantly depopulated during the later Middle Ages, a phenomenon particularly prevalent in the East Midlands. The site preserves archaeological evidence of domestic occupation in the form of earthworks and surface scatters that indicate the former layout and extent of the village. Such settlements provide valuable evidence for understanding medieval rural life, agricultural practice, and the social and economic changes that led to widespread village depopulation in post-medieval England.
