Etymology
The first el. is probably OE cnearr 'rugged rock', with Cnarde - due to the influence of Knaresborough 110supra . The second el. is OE ford 'ford'; the OE spelling with -weorð is probably an error, as OE worð 'enclosure' does not normally occur in this part of the Riding. The ford is probably that which still crosses the R. Skell due south of Skelding. The name is now represented by the f.n. Knayser infra the position of which is on the hill near High Skelding (grid 91–213697).
