Goudhurst è un villaggio inglese del Kent, nel borough di Tunbridge Wells. La parrocchia civile comprende tre ward : Goudhurst, e . Tra le frazioni vi sono , Iden Green, Stonecrouch and Winchet Hill. Nel 1747 a Goudhurst ebbe luogo la cosiddetta Battaglia di Goudhurst, combattuta fra le milizie locali e i componenti di una banda criminale, denominata Holkhourst Genge, dedita prevalentemente al contrabbando, che spadroneggiava nella zona e ne terrorizzava gli abitanti, fra il 1735 ed il 1749. La banda fu sconfitta, i suoi capi arrestati, processati e giustiziati, e la sua attività si spense nel giro di breve tempo.
