Wapentakes of the West Riding. Ewecross is labelled 1 on the map.

The historical area[1] of Ewecross or Ewcross is a district in the West Riding of Yorkshire.[2] It included the parishes of Bentham, Clapham, Horton in Ribblesdale and Sedbergh and parts of Thornton in Lonsdale. Ewcross was split from the Staincliffe and Ewcross wapentake in the nineteenth century.

In modern times the name has been used for one of the four deaneries within the Archdeaconry of Craven in the Anglican Diocese of Bradford.[3]
