Stainsby medieval village and open field system is a scheduled ancient monument located in Yorkshire that preserves evidence of medieval settlement and agricultural organisation. The site comprises the earthworks of a deserted or shrunken village together with associated ridge and furrow remains that demonstrate the open field agricultural system characteristic of medieval England. The visible earthworks, including house platforms, roads, and field strips, date from the medieval period and represent the physical landscape of community life and farming practice before landscape change in the post-medieval era. The monument is significant for illustrating the relationship between settlement form and the communal agricultural system upon which medieval rural communities depended.
