Grassington, Civil parish and market town in Craven, England.

The limestone buildings of Grassington line the cobblestone streets around the central market square, surrounded by the Yorkshire Dales National Park terrain.

The settlement, mentioned in the Domesday Book as Gherinstone, gained its market town status through a Royal Charter granted in 1282.

The Grassington Folk Museum, operated by local volunteers, presents exhibits about the history and traditions of the Wharfedale region.

Regular bus services connect Grassington to Ilkley and Skipton, with multiple parking areas available for visitors exploring the Yorkshire Dales.

The town center served as the filming location for Darrowby in the 2020 television series All Creatures Great and Small.
