Can anyone help with the place names on this attestation form?

Looks like he attested at Uddingston (if that helps) and that is also given as his wife's address and place of intended residence later in the record. FMP's transcription doesn't look right to me so any help deciphering this would be appreciated!

Glenbuck, Muirkirk Ayrshire Very Happy

I see his wife (and his) address was Uddingston, but I don't know if that helps with "Paterson Place"??????

Excellent, many thanks Ken! Very Happy

FMP have it as Scarisbrick, Ormskirk but I could tell that didn't look right! I can cross him off my list.

Paterson Place? Could that be in Tannochside which is part part of Uddingston?
Just a thought.
