Stean is a small village in upper Nidderdale in North Yorkshire, England. It is 8 miles (13 km) north of Pateley Bridge.

The village is located on Stean Beck, a tributary of the River Nidd. Below Stean the beck flows through How Stean Gorge which includes a cave named after Tom Taylor, a highwayman who is rumoured to have hidden there.
