In a city such as Glasgow, we're constantly hearing tales of days gone by - and some of the city's village have some fascinating ones.
Just a few years ago, we discovered a long-lost Aztec manuscript that had lain in Glasgow for over 200 years. The circumstances as to how it ended up at the Hunterian Museum remain a mystery.
Here at Glasgow Live, we got to thinking of the city's village history and sifted through Aileen Smart's books Villages of Glasgow (Volumes 1 and 2), a book which describes in detail the development of villages that now form part of the city, both north and south of the River Clyde.
