Ellerburn is a village in the Ryedale district of North Yorkshire, England, situated near Thornton-le-Dale, about 3 miles (4.8 km) east of Pickering.

The tiny hamlet of Ellerburn was formerly an industrial area with paper mills and quarries.

[1] There is an ancient church, a Grade II listed building,[2] which can boast some unconventional vicars.

A beautifully carved Anglo-Scandinavian style cross can be found on the south wall of the nave.

This church[9] is similar in style and age to St Gregory's Minster in Kirkdale.
