410 Gone
The HTTP 410 Gone
client error response status code indicates that the target resource is no longer available at the origin server and that this condition is likely to be permanent.
A 410 response is cacheable by default.
Clients should not repeat requests for resources that return a 410 response, and website owners should remove or replace links that return this code.
If server owners don't know whether this condition is temporary or permanent, a 404
status code should be used instead.
