A named place photographed at this map point in Glasgow City.
New Govan Church, now demolished, was built in the 19th century by the Church of Scotland, with the Aitken Memorial Fountain added later as a civic contribution. The church was part of a wave of urban ecclesiastical construction in Glasgow and reflected the city's 19th-century religious and social development.
