As the city developed it was covered over and now it primarily runs underground through culverts between here and the point where in enters the Clyde near the tidal weir at Glasgow Green. However, a short section is visible at the surface on the southern side of Duke Street near its junction with John Knox Street.

The Molendinar Burn, Glasgow's third river, disappearing into a culvert near Riddrie Park Cemetery. The original religious settlement from which Glasgow grew, founded by St Mungo in the 6th Century, was built on the banks of the Molendinar, and over time, its waters were to power mills and brew beer.
