This Is My Glasgow<p>Invented in the 1810s, the heavy coffin-shaped mortsafe was placed over the wooden coffin after interment and left there until the body had decomposed enough to no longer be suitable for dissection.

This Is My Glasgow<p>A cast iron mortsafe and stone watchhouse in the Cadder Parish Churchyard on the outskirts of Glasgow. These features were designed to thwart the body-snatchers of the early 1800s who would steal the recently buried to sell to local medical schools. </p><p>Cont./</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glasgow</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/cadder" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cadder</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/church" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>church</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgowchurches" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glasgowchurches</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/mortsafe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mortsafe</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/bodysnatchers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bodysnatchers</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgowhistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glasgowhistory</span></a> </p>

This Is My Glasgow<p>An ecclesiastical mask on St Mungo's Church on Parson Street in the Townhead area of Glasgow. The church was designed by George Goldie, and was originally built in 1841.
