Etymology: From Old English byriġ, the dative case of burg (“fortified place”) (whence borough). Due to the collapse of the case system between Old and Middle English, many placenames retain a fossilized dative form, as places would most commonly have been invoked in the dative (after a preposition in, at, to etc.).
