List of lost settlements in the United Kingdom
Summary
This list of lost settlements in the United Kingdom includes deserted medieval villages (DMVs), shrunken villages, abandoned villages and other settlements known to have been lost, depopulated or significantly reduced in size over the centuries. There are estimated to be as many as 3,000 DMVs in England. Grid references are given, where known.
Note that in many cases English settlements are listed under the relevant historical county, rather than the modern administrative unit.
