Scrafield is a hamlet and a deserted medieval village (DMV)^[1] in the civil parish of Mareham on the Hill, in the East Lindsey district, in the county of Lincolnshire, England. It is approximately 4 miles (6.4 km) south-east of the town of Horncastle. In 1931 the parish had a population of 24.^[2] On 1 April 1936 the parish was abolished to form Mareham on the Hill.^[3]

The village was not listed in Domesday Book of 1086, but first mentioned in documentary sources in 1183.^[4]

Scrafield church was dedicated to Saint Michael but fell into disrepair, and by 1842 it had gone, although the churchyard was still used.^[5]^[6] The northern part of the churchyard was levelled in 1977, and only a single 18th-century gravestone is visible today.^[4]^[5]

Present-day maps show a small number of buildings at Scrafield House.^[7]
