A community council has renewed its calls for the return of human remains discovered at Greenhead Moss almost 90 years ago.The remains, thought by some to date back to the 1600s and possibly those of a covenanter killed for his religious beliefs, were discovered within sight of Cambusnethan Old Kirk in Wishaw but have been held by Glasgow Museums since 1955.A campaign to have them returned to Wishaw in the 1990s was unsuccessful but Central Wishaw community council is again urging Glasgow City Council to return them, to allow interment at Cambusnethan.The Lanarkshire Live app is available to download now.
