NS65NW 12.01 64564 59929 Churchyard

Architect: David Cousin, 1841.

(NS 6455 5995) Cambuslang Parish (Old) Church was built in 1841 on the site of one built in 1743, which in turn succeeded one built in 1626. A church and burial ground is noted at the present site in 1458. A stone coffin was found during the rebuilding in 1743. The church is said to be dedicated to St Cadoc or Cadocus (6th century), but there is no evidence of a Culdee church having existed in this parish.

OSA 1793; Orig Paroch Scot 1851; J T T Brown 1884; J A Wilson 1929; G Hay 1957.

The earliest gravestone in the churchyard is dated 1658. No further information.

Visited by OS (J L D) 12 August 1953.
