Glasgow Cathedral is said to owe its roots to a chap named St. Mungo, a 7th Century priest sent to convert the heathen Scots. Never heard of him (but wasn’t there many years ago a one-hit-wonder pop singer called Mungo Jerry?). Anyway, what became a major Catholic church turned to the Church of Scotland during the Reformation, but now is maintained by the state. Well-preserved Gothic.
I’ll edit more on our long plane rides today.
