{{Short description|English chronicler}} {{Use dmy dates|date=December 2014}} {{use British English|date=December 2014}} '''Stephen Eyton''' or '''Edon''' (fl. 1320?), was an English chronicler.

Eyton was a canon of the Augustinian priory of Warter, near Pocklington in the East Riding of Yorkshire. His name may derive from the nearby village of Etton. He wrote a work entitled ''Acta Edwardi II'' ("The Acts of Edward II"), whose opening words were ''Post mortem toti mundo deflendam'' ("After the death of the whole world, bewail"). John Leland found a copy in the library of Fountains Abbey, but it has not since been identified.<ref>{{DNB|wstitle=Eyton, Stephen}}</ref>
