Sutton-in-Craven is a village, civil parish and electoral ward in the Craven district of North Yorkshire, England that is situated in the Aire Valley between Skipton and Keighley. Historically part of the West Riding of Yorkshire, in 2001 the population was 3,480,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Sutton-in-Craven Parish Council )〕 increasing to 3,714 at the Census 2011〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Civil parish/electoral ward population 2011 )〕 The village is adjacent to Glusburn and Cross Hills, but although these three effectively form a small town, Sutton village maintains its distinct identity. ==History== The village existed before 1086 as "Sutun": listed in the ''Domesday Book''. The landowner then was Ravenkeld who was taxed on 240 acres (100 hectares) of ploughland. But lands were then given by the Norman crown to its compatriots: Robert de Romille followed by Edmund de Boyvill and then Adam de Copley.〔 In the 14th century, the village was known as Sutton-in-Ayrdale but became Sutton-in-Craven in 1620.〔 In the late 17th century Sutton-in-Craven became part of the ancient parish of Kildwick so all Sutton residents were baptised, married and buried at Kildwick Parish Church. But in 1869 Sutton was constituted as a separate ecclesiastical district. Building a church for the new parish started in 1868 and its consecration day was the feast of St. Thomas, 21 December 1869.〔 Sutton-in-Craven Church of England Primary School opened in 1858.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Sutton-in-Craven C of E Primary School )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sutton-in-Craven」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
