Description:
|
This plan shows part of the parish of Lesmahagow between the rivers Nethan and Clyde. It has no date but can be placed before 1785 as Lanark is shown but New Lanark, which was established at that date, is not drawn. Little enclosure is shown although one property, Neuck, has two small enclosed fields in front of it. Two muirs (bogs) are marked as 'muir not claimed'. A number of prehistoric cairns are marked. Lime kilns are noted in several places. Lime was increasingly used in the 18th century for improving soil fertility. At Coalburn coal pits are marked beside two buildings named Coalburn house.
