Scotland has a rich and complex history, however, you may be unaware that Glasgow holds one of the most important collections of historic early medieval carved stones.
Govan Old Church holds a unique collection which dates back as far as the ninth century, to commemorate the power of those who ruled the Kingdom of Strathclyde. An early modern day tombstone from the 17th or 18th century has been found deep under the ground at Govan Old Parish Church.
Excavations are currently taking place led by Stephen Driscoll, professor of historical archaeology at the University of Glasgow, which have been running since last summer.
