Goldshaw Booth is a civil parish in the Pendle district of Lancashire, England. It has a population of 248, [1] and contains the village of Newchurch in Pendle and the hamlets of Spen Brook ( 53°50′46″N 2°16′01″W / 53.846°N 2.267°W) and Sabden Fold ( 53°50′28″N 2°17′24″W / 53.841°N 2.290°W).

The parish adjoins the Pendle parishes of Barley-with-Wheatley Booth, Roughlee Booth, Old Laund Booth and Higham-with-West Close Booth and the Ribble Valley parish of Sabden. It is part of the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). [2]

Goldshaw Booth was once a township in the ancient parish of Whalley. This became a civil parish in 1866, forming part of the Burnley Rural District from 1894. The township extended to cover parts of the adjoining villages of Fence and Wheatley Lane, [4] but this part transferred to Old Laund Booth in 1898. Parts of the parish also transferred to Sabden on its creation in 1904, [a] and Newchurch in Pendle also used to straddle the boundary with Roughlee Booth but was brought entirely within the parish in 1935. [5]
Along with Higham-with-West Close Booth, Barley-with-Wheatley Booth and Roughlee Booth, the parish forms the Higham with Pendleside ward of Pendle Borough Council. [6]
