Rillington is a village and civil parish in the Ryedale district of North Yorkshire, England.

Rillington is on the A64 road, approximately 3 miles east of Malton and south-west of Scarborough.

From 1845 until 1930 the village was served by a railway station which connected Rillington on the York to Scarborough Line. Special trains continued until the 1960s, although the station has now been demolished.

Historically part of the East Riding of Yorkshire, an electoral ward in the same name exists. The population of the ward at the 2011 Census was 1,743.

The village is served by Rillington Community Primary School. It also falls within the catchment area for Norton College.

It was after this village that Rillington Place in Notting Hill west London was named.
