West Goscote was a hundred of Leicestershire that arose from the division of the ancient Goscote Hundred into two. It covers the northwest of the county, an area broadly corresponding to the western part of the post-1974 Charnwood District along with the North West Leicestershire District.
The hundred's main town was Loughborough. Other settlements include Ashby de la Zouch, Coalville and Over Seal (now in Derbyshire).
The hundred was created by the subdivision of the Goscote Hundred in 1346.
