Overview

History & significance

The site of the deserted village of Bartindale is a medieval settlement in Yorkshire whose remains are visible as earthworks in the landscape. The village was abandoned during the medieval period, a fate shared by many English settlements as agricultural practices and land use shifted, particularly during the later medieval centuries. The surviving archaeological evidence comprises ridge and furrow cultivation patterns and settlement remains that document both the domestic occupation and the agricultural exploitation of the surrounding land. The site provides material evidence for understanding the medieval rural economy and the processes of village desertion that characterised parts of northern England during this period.
