Sutton-in-Craven history
Sutton 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. In the 14th century the village was known as Sutton-in-Ayrdale. In 1620 the village became part of the ancient parish of Kildwick. In 1869 Sutton was constituted as a separate ecclesiastical district.
Industry
Greenroyd Mill at Sutton Clough was in 1815 Peter Hartley’s cotton mill. Bairstow family were woollen manufacturers from 1838 until 1970 but a nursing home and houses now stand on the site of their mill.
Transport
In 1773 the first Bingley to Skipton section of the Leeds and Liverpool Canal passed 0.9 miles (1.4 km) to the north of Sutton. By 1781 the canal joined Leeds to Gargrave, and in 1816 completed the link to Liverpool. In 1786 the Keighley and Kendal Turnpike road opened, followed in 1823 by the Blackburn to Addingham road.
