Viscount Gough, of Goojerat in the Punjab and of the city of Limerick, was a title in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. It was created in 1849 for the Anglo-Irish military commander Hugh Gough, 1st Baron Gough, whose military successes included the First Opium War, the First Anglo-Sikh War, and the Second Anglo-Sikh War. He had already been created a baronet, of Synone and Drangan, in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom, on 23 December 1842, and Baron Gough, of ChingKangFoo in China and of Maharajpore and the Sutlej in the East Indies, in 1846, also in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. Lord Gough later became a field marshal. The titles became extinct in 2023 following the death of the 5th Viscount.
