Etymology
According to Surtees III 212, Long Newton formed a single Constablery but included Coatham Stob and part of West Hartburn or Goosepool (see Goosepool Beck supra ). West Hartburn was held to be in the parish of Long Newton and paid tithes to the Rector but joined with Middleton St George in the poor rate. It is dealt with supra under the latter parish. The parish is 4,311 acres in area, and in 1850 the land was mostly arable, VCH III 299.
