Cruchley Ice Piedmont

{{Use dmy dates|date=April 2022}}

Cruchley Ice Piedmont ({{Coord|60|41|S|45|1|W|source:GNIS|display=inline,title}}) is an ice piedmont between the east margins of Powell Island and its north–south range of hills, extending {{convert|2.5|nmi|km|0}} northward from the John Peaks, in the South Orkney Islands. It is a new name applied by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee in 1987 that historically derives from James Weddell's map of 1825 on which Powell Island is charted as two islands, the southern one being "Cruchley's Island."
