Wolfhampcote is a small, very rural civil parish in the Borough of Rugby, in Warwickshire, England, sitting close to the county boundary with Northamptonshire. The landscape is largely agricultural with scattered farms, hedgerows and public footpaths, and the population is sparse so day-to-day life is quiet and centred on neighbouring villages and market towns rather than on any large local centre.
The parish is best known for the remains of a deserted medieval village, with visible earthworks and the ruined fabric of the old parish church, which attract local historians and walkers. Economically it is dominated by farming and rural businesses, while culturally and socially it retains a strong sense of countryside heritage and tranquillity valued by visitors looking for archaeology, wildlife and peaceful walks.
