Views across Lesmahagow
Scotts' view
Between Beechwood Crescent and Garngour Road is a footpath with a seat erected in the memory of the Scott brothers. I tried to get a photo of the plaque but it is very faded and reflections spoiled the photo. Basically, it says "In Loving Memory of Jim Scott (1934-1999) and Hugh Scott (1932-1999)". The photos show the views today from that point, but I expect the Scott brothers had a clearer view, especially of the church, without the more recent buildings.
