Askrigg is a small, linear village in Wensleydale in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, some 10 miles west of Leyburn, and 5 miles east of Hawes. Settled since the Iron Age, the name Askrigg is Old Norse - askr (ash tree) and hryggr (ridge), - the ridge where ash trees grew. The village was granted a weekly Market Charter by Elizabeth I in 1587. More recently, the village served as the fictional town of Darrowby in the 1978-1990 BBC TV series ‘All Creatures Great and Small’.
