Addingham (formerly
Haddincham c.972,
Odingehem 1086) is a village and
civil parish in the English county of
West Yorkshire. It is situated near the
A65, south east of
Skipton, west of
Ilkley, north west of
Bradford and around north west of
Leeds. It is located in the valley of the
River Wharfe and is only from the
Yorkshire Dales National Park. The name is thought to mean "homestead associated with a man called Adda", although in the
Domesday Book, the village was referred to as "Ediham", which may have referred to Earl Edwin of
Bolton Abbey. The 2001 census numbered Addingham's population at 3,599.
