Searched on google got no result, why because it's spelt Wharram Percy  :D

Just incase anyones interested it's a deserted medieval village, just wanted to know if you can visit it, now I can spell it I guess I'll be able find out more ;)

Bet me to it!

Haven't been there for years, it's a weird place to wander around though.

General over-view (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wharram_Percy)


Multi-Map (http://www.multimap.com/map/browse.cgi?client=public&X=485000&Y=466000&width=700&height=400&gride=&gridn=&srec=0&coordsys=gb&db=&addr1=&addr2=&addr3=&pc=&advanced=&local=&localinfosel=&kw=&inmap=&table=&ovtype=&keepicon=&zm=0&scale=25000&down.x=291&down.y=7) (just off the B1248, Malton-Wetwang road)

Yes, there's a public footpath running straight through it (& 'Interpretation signs at the site itself)

I haven't been for years either......I do remember going as a very young kid at school and "helping" dig some of it out though as part of a school project.... :)  :)
