Carmunnock

Carmunnock (/kɑːrˈmʌnək/; Scottish Gaelic: Cathair Mhanach) is a conservation village situated within the Glasgow City council area, lying within three miles (five kilometres) of East Kilbride and Rutherglen in South Lanarkshire and Busby in East Renfrewshire.

This ancient settlement which is associated with the early Christian missionary Saint Cadoc, has a medieval street plan set within the lands of an estate held by variously the Morays of Bothwell, the Earls of Douglas and eventually to the Lords, Marquesses and Dukes of Hamilton until 1700 when it passed to the Stuarts of Castlemilk.

[4][5] The church features external stone staircases to three galleries within the sanctuary and contains examples of stained glass by Norman Macleod MacDougall.

Within the structure of the church is a vault where some members of the Stirling-Stewart family, the Lairds of Castlemilk, are buried.

[6] The village's only public transport links are the number 31 bus service operated by First Glasgow to Glasgow City Centre and the 31B bus service to East Kilbride, operated by JMB Travel.
