Marton is a hamlet in the civil parish of Burton Constable, in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England, and in an area known as Holderness. It is situated approximately 8 miles (13 km) north-east of Kingston upon Hull city centre and 2 miles (3.2 km) east of the village of Skirlaugh and the A165 road.

Marton was formerly a township in the parish of Swine,[1] in 1866 Marton became a separate civil parish, on 1 April 1935 the parish was abolished and merged with Burton Constable.[2] In 1931 the parish had a population of 73.[3]

In 1823 Marton was in the Wapentake and Liberty of Holderness. A Catholic chapel was the only place of worship. Population at the time was 129, with occupations including nine farmers and a shoemaker. A carrier, who was also a Licensed victualler, operated between the village and Hull twice weekly.[4]

Marton was served from 1864 to 1964 by Burton Constable railway station on the Hull and Hornsea Railway.[5]

To the south-east of the settlement is the Roman Catholic Church of the Holy Sacrament which is a Grade II listed building.[6]
