Cuckoo Pint & Wild Garlic near Stanleyburn Bridge
'Pint', in the common name 'Cuckoo Pint', rhymes with 'mint'. It is derived from the old English word 'pintle' and means 'Cuckoo's Penis', which it is thought to resemble. In a similar vein, it has also been called 'Willy Lily' although it does not belong to the Lily Family.
