""This survey offers a broad-ranging synthesis of the history and archaeology of Govan, Glasgow, and aims to inform conservation guidance for future development." "The burgh's origins in early Christian times are demonstrated by the remarkable and enigmatic series of carved stones contained in Govan Old Parish Church. This church remained a haven of tranquility during Govan's remarkable transformation, in less than a century, from a small riverside settlement to the centre of world shipbuilding." "Govan was, before being absorbed by Glasgow in 1912, the fifth largest burgh in Scotland. Synonymous with shipbuilding and advances in marine engineering that carry on to this day, the town bears evidence of its associated industries and the distinctive social institutions fostered by shipbuilding, like Elder Park and the Pearce Institute." "The town has benefited from recent archaeological investigation around Govan Old Parish Church, which has increased understanding of the early Christian roots of the burgh. The authors consider where other areas of archaeological potential he, to inform future management of Govan's historic environment, and pose questions about the evolution of Scotland's burghs in general." "This book forms part of the Scottish Burgh Survey - a series designed to identify the archaeological potential of Scotland's historic towns." "--Jacket.
