Low Parks Museum, South Lanarkshire
Low Parks Museum is now a 5 star visitor attraction under the Visit Scotland grading scheme.
The Museum is housed in some of Hamiltons oldest and and historically significant buildings which were once part of the Duke of Hamilton’s estate. The 18th century Assembly Room, with its original plasterwork and musicians’ gallery, forms a striking centrepiece to the buildings. Displays offer fascinating insight into the communities of South Lanarkshire and the Clyde Valley and how they were shaped by the development of industry and housing. There is also a display on the history of The Cameronian regiment, which was raised in South Lanarkshire and, unitl its disbandment in 1968, held a proud place as Scotland’s only rifle regiment. Two large galleries also house a changing programme of temporary exhibitions.
