Lanarkshire

The River Clyde and its tributary valleys define much of Lanarkshire — fertile lowlands and former coalfields that supported farming, industry and closely connected towns. This historic Scottish county extends south-east of Glasgow, with places such as Hamilton, Motherwell and Lanark reflecting its long role in the central belt’s urban and industrial development. Near Lanark, the Falls of Clyde mark a wooded stretch of river, while the 18th-century mill village of New Lanark is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Lanarkshire also retains a strong rural side in the Clyde Valley, known for orchards and market gardening. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of Lanarkshire.
