Ride Across The River

The story goes like this...At the beginning of 5th Century AD, St Mungo left Culross in the Kingdom of Fife and set out for the West Coast. On his way he met an old man named Fergus, but Fergus was sick and died soon after. Mungo took his body and placed it on a cart pulled by two bulls. He said 'Wherever these bulls should rest, I will build my church.' The bulls stopped by the Molendinar Burn, a tributary of the river Clyde, and Mungo called this place Glasgu, meaning 'The Dear Green Place'. And there he built Glasgow Cathedral, the mediaeval version of which still stands today, with St Mungo's remains laid to rest inside.
