Neroth is a small village in Unnikulam Gram panchayat in the Kozhikode district, state of Kerala, India. The name Neroth is given to many other villages in Kerala and even there is a municipality called Neroth in German district of Rhineland-Palatinate.

Neroth is about 3 km away from Poonoor town and same distance away from Elettil Vattoli town. The village is known with the name of old Poonoor Govt. High school (Now named as GHSS Poonoor).

A coir factory operated in Neroth years ago and has since closed. The decomposed waste of the coir factory can be seen as brown hill on ach side of the Neroth - Mangad road. When it catches fire it becomes a threat to the people and the coconut trees. An attempt to convert the waste to fertilizers was unsuccessful.
