Burton Constable is a village and civil parish in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England. It lies approximately 9 mi north-east of Hull city centre and 3 mi south-east of the village of Skirlaugh. The civil parish is formed by the village of Burton Constable and the hamlets of Marton and West Newton. At the 2021 census, the population of the parish was 115.

The name Burton derives from the Old English burhtūn meaning 'settlement at the fort'. 'Constable' derives from Ulbert le Conestable, who married the widow of the village's manor.

It is the site of Burton Constable Hall, a Grade I listed Elizabethan country house.

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

Marmaduke Tunstall, the 18th-century ornithologist, was born in the village.{{cite ODNB
