Description

About Larkhall in South Lanarkshire

Larkhall sits in the rolling countryside of Avondale and is situated to the south east of Hamilton with excellent access to the M74 motorway. A draft regeneration programme to build on the major investment taking place in the town was launched in June 2004. Work on a £35 million rail link is already underway and a £17.4 million replacement for Larkhall Academy and £40,000 redevelopment of Larkhall town centre are in the pipeline. The reopening of the rail line in 2005 will see the reinstatement of the first passenger rail service between Hamilton and Larkhall since 1965. It will also provide a half-hourly service between Larkhall and Dalmuir via Hamilton, Glasgow and Partick.

The Clyde Valley is just minutes away with its selection of garden centres, tea rooms, country walks, parks and pony trekking. If it's history you're after, Chatelherault Country Park is two miles away and the kids can be entertained in its huge adventure playground, while Craignethan Castle is six miles away.

Following the decline of the coal industry around Larkhall in the 1940s a programme of diversification in both manufacturing and services attraced new business to the area. Among today's large employers are plastic manufacturers Rosti and Hunter Douglas, the blind manufacturers.
