Here's a link to an old map, which includes Goshen Farm:

There was a Goshen Farm in the Bury area in Victorian times? An Unsworth family seem to have lived there from early 17th C. It seems to have been close to the river Roache.

I'd assumed there'd be a Goshen Chapel ... possibly, in light of the biblical connections, with a burial ground, but I can't find anything on that idea. Sorry.
