The history of Crayke can be traced back well over a millennium to Saxon times when it was reputedly known as Creca, thought by many to be derived from Crag and on approaching Crayke it is easy to see why. The village lies atop the first notable hill to the north of the Vale of York at an altitude of about 350 feet and enjoys spectacular views across the surrounding countryside including over the Howardian Hill Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty of which Crayke marks the south easterly point. The conservation village of Crayke was once owned by the Prince Bishops of Durham and today the popular Durham Ox Public House offers a permanent reminder of their connection with the village. Other services in the village include a highly regarded primary school together with St Cuthbert's Church named after the eponymous Bishop and medieval saint.
