  3. The tantalising remains of the little-known Lesmahagow Priory in South Lanarkshire. Founded in 1144, everything but the priory church was quarried down to ground level for its stone in the 1600s. More pics and info: undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/les

  13. I’ve taken several little videos of hills and mountains from my train trip so far but I figure most people don’t really want to see a view of, say, Tinto capped with a dod of mist, because it’s just another rounded hill in the Scottish Southern Uplands (albeit the highest in South Lanarkshire). But I like it, and judging by the size of the Bronze Age cairn at the top, it meant something to our ancestors too.

  14. Leadhills may not be an imaginative name for a village high in the Lowther Hills and founded on lead mining, but it is an apt one. Located just within South Lanarkshire, it is Scotland's second-highest village, after nearby Wanlockhead. More pics and info: undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/lea

  15. The mighty medieval Bothwell Castle, built on a bluff above a bend in the River Clyde. Construction began in the latter half of the 1200s but invasion and repeated siege meant that the original design of the castle was never completed. More pics and info: undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/bot

    East Kilbride Central North

    South Lanarkashire.
