History
Wharram Percy is a deserted medieval village and former civil parish near Wharram-le-Street, now in the parish of Wharram, on the western edge of the chalk Wolds of North Yorkshire, England. Although the site seems to have been settled since prehistory, the village appears to have been most active from the 10th to the 12th centuries.
