Goathland, Rural village in North York Moors National Park, England.

Stone cottages line the streets of Goathland, surrounded by moorland and wooded valleys within the Scarborough district of North Yorkshire.

The village's name derives from an Old English term meaning 'good land', with records dating back to 1109 when King Henry I granted the area.

The Goathland Plough Stots perform traditional Long Sword dances on Plough Monday, maintaining Yorkshire folk traditions through public performances.

The North Yorkshire Moors Railway connects Goathland station to Grosmont and Pickering, offering regular steam train services throughout the year.

The village railway station transformed into Hogsmeade Station for the first Harry Potter film and served as Aidensfield in the television series Heartbeat.
