Askrigg is in the heart of Wensleydale. It is a small
village which fell into the worldwide media spotlight when
it became the location for filming All Creatures Great and
Small, the TV series inspired by the stories of Yorkshire
vet James Herriott. Skeldale House can be seen opposite the
thirteenth century church.
Askrigg was also noted for hand knitting and clock
making and the ancient bull-baiting ring is still
set in the village square next to the market cross
and stone pump.
The school has very close links with the local
Church. We hope you enjoy these views of our
village. |
