There are four shops within the Earnock area, all on Wellhall Road: Fillipetti's (small licensed convenience shop), Aldi supermarket (opened in winter 2006, built on the site of a former Safeway store) an Esso petrol station and a Boots chemist (formerly part of the Moss chain, and before that known as The Wellhall Pharmacy) is located on the corner of Hillhouse Road and Wellhall Road.
At the moment this is just a large grassy park, however it previously had swings, a roundabout and climbing frames.
The path runs to Strathaven Road, and many residents can also gain access to it through their back gates.
