    A Brief History Govan is situated opposite the confluence of the Rivers Clyde and Kelvin. h was once surrounded by fertile lands and woods. The place name of Govan has its roots in Cehic with similar words found in both Gaelic and Welsh (British). Gofan, Gowain, Gwvane, Govaine, Gohan and Goven translate to mean Smith or Land of the Smith. Govan may have been named for its reputation as an area where metal was worked. lndeed the presence of Doomster Hill and the round shaped graveyard of Govan Old Parish Church would suggest that there was a com- munity long before the Romans arrived. The ecclesiastical history of Govan dates back to the early monastery founded by St Constantine around 565 AD. Constantine was a contemporary of Columba and Kentigern. He wayeputed to be a Cornish Kinf, although recent historians prefer lrish or Scottish origins. The date of his Martyrdom was around 596AD. It was not until around 1147 lhal the name of Govan was historically recorded when King David I gave to the church ol Glasgu,'Guven'with its 'marches free and clear forever'. lt was during this period that the church in Govan was made a prebend (an associated church) of Glasgow Cathedral in or around 'l 153. Govan was primarily a fishing and farming community, although by the l6th Century there were extensive coal mine workings in the Craigton and Drumoyne areas. The village grew as new trades and crafts were established such as weaving, silk manufacture, pottery Many Govanites thought that it should have been the and the dyeing of cotton.

  • EDIMBURGO È La Capitale Della Scozia, Nonché La Città Inglese Più Famosa E Visitata Della Gran Bretagna, Dopo Naturalmente Londra
    EDIMBURGO È la capitale della Scozia, nonché la città inglese più famosa e visitata della Gran Bretagna, dopo naturalmente Londra. La sua particolare disposizione, su una serie di colline, le ha fatto guadagnare l’appellativo di Atene del Nord e il suo centro storico è uno dei più belli e meglio conservati d’Europa. Diviso a metà da Princes Street e dagli omonimi giardini, comprende la Old Town a sud e la New Town a nord, entrambe dichiarate Patrimonio dell’Umanità dall’Unesco. Mentre la Old Town conserva la sua struttura medievale, e si sviluppa attorno alla principale via cittadina (la Royal Mile, che collega l’imponente Castello della città con l'Holyrood Palace, la residenza ufficiale in Scozia della regina Elisabetta), la New Town è un mirabile esempio dell’architettura e dell’urbanistica dell’epoca georgiana, con il suo reticolo di ampie vie perpendicolari tra loro e chiuse alle estremità da due piazze quadrate: St Andrew Square a est e Charlotte Square a ovest. Ma Edimburgo non è degna di interesse soltanto per la sua storia (qui hanno vissuto Maria Stuarda e lo scrittore Robert Louis Stevenson), ma anche per la sua vita culturale, movimentata dai numerosi festival internazionali (il Festival di Edimburgo, Fringe, Tatoo Military) che si concentrano nel mese di agosto. Edimburgo è anche la città scozzese con la più alta concentrazione di pub e ristoranti e la patria dell’autentico scotch whisky. Indimenticabile il suo tipico skyline, caratterizzato dal profilo del maestoso castello costruito sul promontorio di un antico vulcano, a dominare dall’alto i viali spaziosi, i palazzi eleganti e i numerosi giardini che l’hanno trasformata, dopo il sovraffollamento che ha vissuto durante il Medioevo, in una città estremamente vivibile.
