(SE 4158) Allerton Mauleverer deserted medieval
village. "Although a separate vill as late as 1285 the later
references, like the first Census, link it with Hopperton, which is
now the centre of settlement. The church and Hall at Allerton
stand alone. No earthworks of the site could be seen under the
extensive gardens and outbuildings. An early charter (before 1105)
delineates tofts and crofts near the church." (Excavations at the
church have shown early medieval features; see SE 45 NW 3 & 8 for
church and priory respectively). (1)
