Rusty McRustface 🙂 Actually, I think it should be called the 1820 bridge. Not only would it acknowledge the @1820Radical martyrs but it would rhyme with another fine Glasgow bridge, The Squinty Bridge 🤣

I don't live in Sighthill but I do represent it so I'm going for the 1820 Martyrs Bridge because 2 of them are buried at Sighthill Cemetery & all are commemorated with a monument.

In spite of the enormity of the Militia’s crime no disciplinary action was taken. At night the citizens of Greenock rescued the Paisley Radicals, only one of whom was subsequently re-arrested.
