Grimstone or Grimston[1] is a hamlet and civil parish in North Yorkshire, England. It lies beside the main B1363 road between York and Helmsley. Grimston lies in the Howardian Hills just south of the North York Moors National Park and close to Ampleforth Abbey and College. In 2015 it had an estimated population of 60.[2]
Grimston is small, and is made up of around 14 households[citation needed].

Grimston was recorded in the Domesday Book as Grimeston.[3]
