Hutton Cranswick

Hutton Cranswick is a village and civil parish in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England, approximately 3 miles (4.8 km) south of Driffield town centre on the A164 road.

Originally comprising two villages, Hutton to the north, and Cranswick to the south, the expansion of the villages has merged them together to form a single village, Hutton Cranswick. However, the individual parts of the village are still often referred to by their separate names and both maintain their individual character. The village has a small railway station, served by Northern Rail services on the Yorkshire Coast Line.

The civil parish is formed by the village of Hutton Cranswick and the hamlets of Rotsea and Sunderlandwick. According to the 2001 UK census, Hutton Cranswick parish had a population of 2,015.

Cranswick had two local shops, one currently run by SPAR, and a local independent shop called A&J Southwicks, often referred to as the "blue shop" (by the local children), or as "bottom shop." Both shops were situated off the village green, the A&J Southwicks shop is now closed. The village green used to host cricket matches that are now played east of the village on a field adjacent to the road Meggisons Turnpike. The village green has a pond, playpark area and mature trees. In addition there is a farm shop, a butcher's shop, a hairdresser, a fish and chip shop and garages selling both cars and petrol. To the south of the village is an industrial estate with several businesses including Cranswick Mill.

Hutton Cranswick is a regular competitor in the yearly "Village in Bloom" competition. Articles about the competition are published in the newsletter, The Bulletin, which also contains information on local affairs, either past, present or upcoming, and provides advertisements for local businesses.
