Harold Booton (born 2 March 1906 in Annesley, Nottinghamshire, died 22 October 1976 in Denham, Buckinghamshire) was an English professional footballer who played as a right-back. He became a first-team regular for Birmingham after George Liddell retired, and made 162 appearances in all competitions, including 149 in the First Division. He was a solid tackler and kicked powerfully, but his distribution of the ball was wayward. He later played for Luton Town and Atherstone.
