Golborne David is a civil parish in the unitary authority of Cheshire West and Chester and ceremonial county of Cheshire, England. It is part of the local government ward of Tattenhall.[1]

In the 2001 census it had a population of 55.[2] The Office for National Statistics combined this figure with the neighbouring civil parishes of Chowley and Handley, with the total given as 227.[3] In the 2011 census these parishes were again combined, with the total population recorded as 253.[4]

History[edit]

The name Golborne means "marigold stream" and likely derives from the Old English words golde (marigold) and burna (a stream). During the thirteenth century, David de Golberne held this part,[5] with the remainder known as Golborne Bellow.

Golborne was mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086 as Colburne,[6] with ownership divided between William Malbank and Osbern, son of Tezzo. The entry lists eight households.[7]

Golborne David was a township within Handley parish of Broxton Hundred, which became a civil parish in 1866. The population was recorded at 62 in 1801, 74 in 1851, 67 in 1901, 59 in 1951 and decreasing slightly to 55 by 2001.[2]
