Weir [NAT]

OS 1:10,000 map, 1985.

This weir and footbridge span the River Clyde upstream of Bonnington Linn [name: NS 8834 4056] and control the supply of water to Bonnington Power Station (NS84SE 131.00). The river here forms the boundary between the parishes of Lesmahagow (to the S) and Lanark (to the N).

The location assigned to this record defines the midpoint of the structure. The available map evidence suggests that it extends from NS c. 88459 40700 to NS c. 88484 40660.
