Grimstone or Grimston is a hamlet in the North Riding of Yorkshire, close by the B1363 road between York and Helmsley. The village stands in the Howardian Hills just south of the North York Moors National Park and close to Ampleforth Abbey and College. In 2015 the village had an estimated population of 60.

This is a small place, with only about 14 households. Historically, it originates from an old manorial estate, and several of the buildings still hold related names: Grimston Manor, Grimston Manor Farm, Grimston Lodge, Grimston Cottage and Grimston Grange.

Grimston is recorded in the Domesday Book as Grimeston.[1]
