Scrayingham is a village and civil parish in North Yorkshire, England. The population was less than 100 at the 2011 census. Details are included in the civil parish of Howsham, North Yorkshire. The village is situated approximately north-east from the centre of the city and county town of York. It was historically part of the East Riding of Yorkshire until 1974 and part of the Ryedale district from 1974 to 2023. It is now administered by the unitary North Yorkshire Council.
The name Scarayingham possibly derives from the Old English Scirheahingashām meaning 'village of Scirheah's people'. Alternatively, the first element may be derived from the Old Norse personal name Skrati. Another theory suggests that it derives from Scraeginghām, meaning 'village at a place called Scraeging'.
