The Craddock Crags are a group of steeply sloping rock elevations with a height of up to 1450  m , which are located directly east of Beitzel Peak in the West Antarctic Marble Hills .

They were named in 2004 by the American Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names after John P. Craddock, a geologist and member of an expedition of the United States Antarctic Program to the Ellsworth Mountains in 1979/80.
