Ellerton is a small rural village and civil parish in the East Riding of Yorkshire, set among arable fields and quiet country lanes a short drive from larger market towns. Traditionally agricultural, the local economy remains rooted in farming though many residents now commute outwards while enjoying the slower pace of village life.

The parish has historic roots stretching back to medieval times and retains a handful of listed buildings and a parish church; community life centres on village events, the church and the village hall. Hedgerows, footpaths and tranquil lanes make it a pleasant spot for walkers and anyone looking for a peaceful base in the Yorkshire countryside.
