Fryup (grid reference Script error: No such module "Ordnance Survey coordinates".) is a hamlet in the North York Moors National Park in North Yorkshire, England. It is within the civil parish of Danby, and is located alongside Great Fryup Beck in Great Fryup Dale.
Fryup is separated into two small valleys or dales: Great Fryup Dale and Little Fryup Dale. The majority of people live in Great Fryup Dale, with Little Fryup having only eight or nine farms and cottages. Great Fryup has no shops nor even a pub; it has a telephone box, a post box, village hall and outdoor centre which used to be the old school. There is also a local cricket pitch and Quoits pitch.
From 1974 to 2023 it was part of the Borough of Scarborough, it is now administered by the unitary North Yorkshire Council.
Name
Name origin
The curious name Fryup may be a Yorkshire dialect reconstruction of the earlier name Frehope (14th century).

Local tradition and folklore
An old woman at Fryup was well known locally[citation needed] for keeping the Mark's e'en watch (24 April), as she lived alongside a corpse road known as Old Hell Road. The practice involved a village seer holding vigil between 11 pm and 1 am to watch for the wraiths of those who would die in the following 12 months.
Sport
The Fryup Cricket Club ground and pavilion (built in 1925) is situated along the track off Long Causeway Road.[6] The club senior XI compete in the Esk Valley Evening League.[7]
