ArchivesRe: Name Meaning
in reply to a message by namegamer01
Borough has the meaning of 'town' (or 'fortified town' or 'fortress' in earlier usages)

I would assume that Goldsborough would mean "Gold's Borough" - that is, the town or fortress belonging to someone named Gold.
Where is the name used?
