- List_of_Shropshire_deserted_villages_and_lost_places abstract "Shropshire in England is a county rich in abandoned, modified or lost settlements. This list of settlements includes deserted, lost or shrunken places in the county. They span the period from Neolithic times to 1952 when a landslip into the River Severn destroyed a large part of Jackfield, which was part of Broseley at the time. Included are Iron Age Hill Forts, Romano-British sites, Domesday Manors, Deserted Medieval Villages, Lost Settlements, Shrewsbury Medieval Suburbs and 19th century industrial settlements. They have provided homes for Shropshire people of their time, have changed in some significant way, and have left documentary and/or landscape clues to their history and, for most, their location. A brief outline of such factors is given for a large proportion of sites.It is significant that a large proportion of Deserted Medieval Villages in the south of the county were at higher altitudes, many on the slopes of the Clee Hills. These are the highest points in Shropshire and it is likely that their medieval inhabitants were literally pushing the boundary of cultivation and occupation into ever more marginal territory. So, when the economic decline and successive crop failures of the 13th and 14th centuries occurred, these places fell into decline. Contemporary technology and farming methods did not permit their successful cultivation, so their people withdrew to sustainable locations, often lower down. As in other counties, though, considerable desertion was due to piece by piece consolidation of land into extensive tracts by single owners, often monastic, as seen for example, in the estate of Wenlock Priory which subsequently became the nucleus of the scattered Borough of Much Wenlock.The settlements listed as Former Domesday Manors may now be represented by single buildings of the same name, although some were clearly never greater than this. The term 'lost' is used in cases where the status is uncertain, for some places they are literally lost, as the site is not known. However, for some Lost Settlements an approximate location can be given because modern features and names reflect the original position. In some of these cases the description 'lost' is used to identify original settlements whose location is known because of modern redevelopment of the area but where there is a lack of continuity in habitation. Where a site has no known name, the nearby significant place is given in brackets. Ordnance Survey grid references are given where possible. In a few cases this is for the approximate, rather than precise location.".
