Burnbank Parish Church, High Blantyre Road, Burnbank ML3 9HA

A Church of Scotland church, part of the Presbytery of Hamilton when Burnbank village was incorporated into Hamilton Burgh in 1887, the beginnings of the congregation had been established in "the Coffee House". Burnbank Chapel of Ease, dedicated in 1880, became the Parish Church in 1892 and the large hall, chancel and manse were added between 1900 and 1907. The congregation became linked to the Hamilton North Church in the 1980s.
