Chatton is a village in Northumberland, in England. It is roughly 6 km (3.7 mi) to the east of Wooler.
A rock overhang at nearby Ketley Crag has examples of pre-historic rock art petroglyphs, including a profusion of cup and ring marks, which have been described as "stunning".
It is the site of Hetton Hall, owned by descendants of the soldier Sir Thomas Grey whose expolits were recorded in the Scalacronica chronicle.
The village has amenities which include a pub (the Percy Arms) and village shop.
