There have been two baronetcies created for persons with the surname Houldsworth, both in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. One creation is extant as of 2007.
The Houldsworth Baronetcy, of Reddish, in the Parish of Manchester, in the County Palatine of Lancaster and of Coodham, in the Parish of Symington, in the County of Ayr, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 20 July 1887 for the mill-owner and Conservative politician William Houldsworth. The family surname is pronounced "Hoaldsworth".
The Houldsworth Baronetcy, of Heckmondwike in the West Riding of the County of York, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 25 January 1956 for the coal industry manager and industrialist Hubert Houldsworth. He died a week later. The title became extinct on the death of his son, the second Baronet, in 1990.
