Crépy (in French pronounced as /kʁepi/) is a commune in the Pas-de-Calais department in the Hauts-de-France region of France.[2]
A typical rural agricultural village situated some 20 miles (32 km) east of Montreuil-sur-Mer on the D71 road. The limestone hill located south of wood is managed by the Nature Conservatory. The many hedges in the village have created an ecological network, essential for wildlife. The preservation of these hedges and the conservation of grasslands is vital. Some rare species breed in the area.
