East Cowton is a small village and civil parish in the district of Hambleton in North Yorkshire, England, located a few miles west of the market town of Northallerton. It sits in a rural, agricultural landscape of rolling fields and quiet lanes and forms one of the trio of Cowton villages alongside West Cowton and South Cowton.
The village retains a traditional feel with a parish church and community facilities and many stone-built houses; the local economy remains largely agricultural though a number of residents commute to nearby towns for work. Its countryside setting makes it popular with walkers and those seeking a quieter pace of life, while proximity to Northallerton provides shops, rail connections and wider services.
