East Heslerton is a village, near Malton in North Yorkshire, England.

East Heslerton was served by Heslerton railway station on the York to Scarborough Line between 1845 and 1930.

The church was designed by George Edmund Street commissioned by Sir Tatton Sykes of Sledmere House. Work started in 1873 and St Andrew’s was completed in 1877. It has sculptures of the four saintly fathers of the Latin Church, St Augustine, St Ambrose, St Gregory and St Jerome, all modelled by James Redfern. They were originally intended for the northern porch of Bristol Cathedral but were thought too "papist" by the Dean and rejected. They were rescued by Street.

There is a deserted village near East Heslerton which is open to the public all year. Visitors can see the remains set in ridge and furrow fields.
